Anybody remember an episode from "The Cosby's" where Cliff Huxtable mentioned liking callaloo and then was playing a scaled down version of cricket in he living room and mocking the Queen/the English while doing it??
callaloo soup he called it.
Yeah he didn't just mention liking it...he had a "chef" come in to make it for his Anniversary. The Chef was putting all kinda healthy thing in th epot and he had Alvin (who had Caribbean parents) pulling thing out the pot.
There was also an episode of
Seinfeld where Elaine was hosting a marathon runner from Trinidad and Tobago named Jean-Paul on his trip to the NY marathon. Jean-Paul was famous for oversleeping at the Olympics (sounds like a Trini) so Jerry take over the responsibility of getting him to the race on time. Kramer blow the fuses in the building (with his hot-tub I believe) the alarm clocks didn't go off and he was late again.
Jean-Paul sounded nothing like a Trinbagonian, I feel the writers meant Haiti but make a left turn at the end because it was funny to make a play on Jen-Paul being "Trinidadian and Tobaggan".
Also saw a kids show recently called Hip Hop Harry where one of the kids' Grandmother was from trinidad and visited. They play steelpan and had a mini carnival.
