“I was waiting on 'Angie Tribeca' to start filming, so I was like, I can go over to 'Black-ish' and write until they're ready to shoot 'Angie Tribeca.' Then the guy who was supposed to play Charlie didn't show up, and Kenya Barris, the creator, asked me if I would play that role. Charlie is based on Kenya Barris.”
