Based on Lawrence Otis Graham’s book “Our Kind of People: Inside America’s Black Upper Class” and produced byand Karin Gist, the series takes place in the aspirational world of Oak Bluffs on Martha’s Vineyard, a historical stronghold where the rich and powerful Black elite have come to play for more than 50 years.

“Our Kind of People” follows strong-willed, single mom Angela Vaughn as she sets out to reclaim her family’s name and make an impact with her revolutionary haircare line that highlights the innate, natural beauty of Black women. But she soon discovers a dark secret about her own mother’s past that will turn her world upside-down and shake up this community forever.

Along with DaCosta , “Our Kind of People” stars Morris Chestnut , Joe Morton , Nadine Ellis , Lance Gross , Rhyon Nicole Brown , Kyle Bary and newcomer Alana Bright. The show debuted last September as part of Fox’s fall lineup. The show’s 12-episode first season concluded with the finale Jan. 25. During its run, “Our Kind of People” averaged a 0.5 rating among adults 18-49 and 2.1 million total viewers, according to Nielsen’s delayed viewing data.

“Our Kind of People” is created by Gist, who executive produces with Daniels, Marc Velez, Claire Brown, Ben Silverman, Rodney Ferrell, Pam Williams and Montrel McKay.

Oh no. Why

they really had something here… they needed to advertise it better. i just found out about the show in april.

🙀 That's sooooooo bad ...

This is ridiculous. If it were a show portrayal of black drug dealers , it would still be on the air. Fox is so not slick.

Subpar show got exactly what it needed.

Noooooooooooooooooooo

Dammit

I gave it a chance and hoped Fox would give it a second season.

I can’t believe this I want to see what happens in season two…why FOXTV I swear the culture was everything. I watched every week just to see how she was rocking the natural hair

If the family was rich from drug crime or music industry, it would get seven seasons. This was a good show. I’m weary.

I like that show 😐

OWNTV

Did Leah die or nah?

they need to tell us if Louis killed Lia thinking it was Teddy? what happens with fine ass Nate? do them kids keep the baby? did the maid steal the bracelet? too many question to just cancel on us..

This show had potential. hulu peacockTV OWNTV STARZ Tubi please consider picking up OurKindFOX and giving it the justice it deserves. Some shows need time to gell and the right care, show runner, writers. The cast is fire. I wanted more for the family. OurKindOfPeople

Shit well tell me who shot what’s her name. Cause I think now but I need to actually know.

Fox is another racists network, I'm not surprised. It wasn't giving a chance. It got so much better towards the end. Season 2 would have seal it to many more seasons. Bet should have pick it up.

This is a disgrace

So we won't know who shot Leah ? 😕

They know they wrong for this! Especially since the finale had all those plot twists!

SMH! Terrible news!😩😢

😑

I actually liked this show but I couldn’t see it going further than 1 season

Oh no this was actually good!
