OWN's Queen Sugar weaves a stunning and spectacular story of a family and its secrets, and all the ways long-held resentments can change the nature of relationships. But the show's true accomplishment is its thoughtful and nuanced depiction of Black men.

Queen Sugar gets the everyday details of Black life so right.

Alexis Okeowo
New Yorker
The series is gloriously focussed on the everyday experience of being black in the South, and, much like the series "Insecure," it isn't concerned with translating that experience or broadening its scope beyond that world to appeal to a wider audience.
