FIRST COMMENT!!!
COOL!!!! I think it is important for things like this to happen because slavery is such an important topic yet it is overlooked by so many people!!!

This is definitely because of all the slave themed media coming out with 12 Years a Slave and Django Unchained. Hopefully it will be good but worst comes to worst we always have the original. Hopefully they get someone to score it that has common sense. Being drug along to a plantation should not have positive music. This isn't Disney's Song of the South.

It's always nice to see when classic things like this are redone for the new generations just as long as it's good. I hope this turns out to be something worth watching.

That's no fun! Kunta Kinte can not be played by someone else. Nobody else can capture his excessive facial expressions to the same extent! If this must happen, I hope that the producers think like Mr.Carlisle and make the little musician buddies best friends, that could add a whole new twist. The white musician could be an anti-slavery supporter. Man, I just outdid myself! I'll see you people on the flipside when I finish producing a new hit film!

I will definitely be watching this! My only request is that there is, at least, one episode dedicated to the best friend musicians as their love overcomes the racism and bigotry in their society. There could be a whole mini-series following the white one as he gets back to America and has to leave slave trading, because in all the slaves' faces he sees his best friend. Then, one day, while walking through town, he sees his bro at a slave auction and buys him and they live happily ever after and the camera pans out as they skip holding hands back to his house while Queen's You're My Best Friend plays in the distance the end.
