Moesha was a great student and did typical teenage things and Frank was always unfair to her... but MYLES was smoking weed and doing the most but with zero consequences
Awww that line right there: “You only call me Moesha when you’re mad at me...but you want me to be pumpkin for the rest of my life...I’m sorry...I can’t”
I agree. Most fathers have a hard time accepting that their pumpkins, princesses, sweethearts, and babies of daughters EVENTUALLY HAVE TO GROW UP. And with growing up, comes BOYS. But Frank was very stubborn and strict. He needed to loosen up a little and give Moesha a little more freedom.
The crazy part is.. Frank proved to be the biggest hypocrite ever! He gets mad at moesha or Dee or anyone for "lying and not acting responsible" when he lied about having another child and cheating on his late wife.
Its ok to parent your kids and everything but Frank goes to the extreme like the only reason Moesha made the decisions she made because Frank ran that house like a damn boot camp she had no privacy couldn't do nothing.....he barely let her hang out at Then Den like Moesha is a responsible young woman like when she was thinking about having sex at least she had birth control and condoms
He for gave her! And he has a right to be mad she lied! That’s the problem with society these days girls think they can do and say whatever they want and get away with whatever they want until the consequences come then they blame others for their actions! Same old story! I would’ve helped her pack all her sh t and she would’ve been out!
Frank is weird. His constant sexism and disrespect towards moesha was horrible. Notice through the series when dorian was dating an older moesha asked him "would you like if i dated an older man"he said its different for boys. He let dorian do stuff they moesha would never be able to get away with.
Frank was just being that way with Dorian because he was trying to make up for the lie about being his uncle. Remember the birthday party and Moesha told Frank that he was trying to buy a son? Just double standards when it came to Moesha. Even when he found out about the birth control pills. Instead of talking with Moesha he flew off the handle.

I have to give Andell major props for stepping in to take Moesha in until she and Frank "came to an understanding". Too many black kids don't have people they can turn to when they aren't getting along with their parents or when their home life isn't safe or ideal and they turn to the streets or worse and we've seen how that turns out. Big respect to Andell and people like her.
@@Bloombaby99 You're supposed to obey your parents, young lady. Stop acting grown and you wouldn't have to worry about the streets and unsafe environments.
I hate frank and all other men who feel like they can control their daughters. It’s weird and predator like behavior. The way these men view women as being sex objects and not actual humans deserving of respect
I wouldn't say it's predator like more just overly bearing and never letting her have freedom. I think he does have good intentions he just needs to loosen up and give her space
Aww u stumbled onto the wrong video. Frank is overbearing and stuck up. But he never treated his daughter as a sex object. Take your uninspired feminist rant elsewhere. Shout-out to Dee she was the best character on the show
@@MrStaley EXACTLY. He was controlling and overbearing but didn't treat her like a sex object. Sometimes people like this always try to make it into an anti man rant
@@getstompedon2200 It doesn’t matter what his intentions are. The fact is his behavior is terrible and that’s it. It’s weirdly possessive and so I won’t blame someone if they were to view it as predatory. Cuz that’s how predatory men tend to act anyhow. Or at least just the one factor
Frank is by far the most stubborn no by far the most stubborn fathers I never seen on TV. Moesha Said everything is true. He didn’t take the time to really listen to her and understand. She has since she just went downstairs and just talked and that’s it. Frank can’t seem to let his pride go
I respectfully disagree with you lol. This one scene doesn't do it any justice for Moesha behavior at times. It just made Frank out to be an unfair parent. And that was not the case. Mo was no angel on the show when it started. She always got into something but she was also in high school and finding her way in life as a teenager. But she always got into something, you will just have to watch the episodes that lead up to this scene. Cause Mo use to be buggin out😂😂 she was the female version of her brother Dorian (Ray J) during the early stages of the sbow. And he gave Frank more hell than Mo did lol. Frank wasn't always the most easy going father at times. But he protected his daughter just like most fathers would. He even caught her and Q almost about to have sex in her room. Without even knowing it. And that wasn't even in the episodes just yet that was later on down the road on the show. And we all know he didn't approve of Q at all. Cause he was just a "thug" to Frank. But he was just a cool chilled hood dude that love Moesha.
@@wonderwoman5732 Girl shut up, I haven't responded to your annoying ass in months. You basically been talking to yourself. You that butthurt over Frank and a tv show. You need to seek canceling. I have tried to be rational with you when we started going back and forth months ago. And tried to understand from your piont of view and give my perspective too. You don't know nothing about me or what I've been through in life. Let it go and move on. Or go seek help. Cause you are obviously dealing with some past life trauma
He really Is . He gets on my nerves and is a complete hypocrite . Like he gets mad at her for every little thing but it’s ok for him to hide a son for 18 years
I feel bad & sorry 4 Mo 4 being accused by having sex which was she wasn’t her father should’ve asked her what was she doing up stairs with Jeremy when he saw them coming downstairs her & Jeremy was just talking.
Frank lied, Moesha's mom lied, Moesha's aunt lied, and so did the members of there extended family. Every time they referred to Dorian as Moesha and Myles' cousin or the son of Frank's sister and brother-in-law they all lied.
@CoilsFit4aQueen The fact still remains that the entire family except Dee lied to those kids. Just because Dorian's parents are the ones responsible for him doesn't make it ok for the entire family to participate in the lie.
@@MissLadyG99 Yet the entire family isnt Moeshas father who specifically treats moesha like every little thing she does is punishable by law. Thats what we mean when we lambaste Frank, specifically, for being a hypocrite. That's the difference. That's the context
@@iliveontheinternet1009 I know the show and the context of it. The still remains that the entire family lied to those kids. They didn't have to participate in the lie instead it was Frank's sister who came up with the lie.
Here's the thing with me because I grew up on this show. Its apart of my childhood. Moesha was very mature for her age physically and intellectually. They wanted her to be responsible but they also wanted her to stay a kid. Teen years are very tricky because your body is going through changes and then you have boys that you are interested in and then you have school to focus on and your parents expect you to do chores and have responsibilities. You gotta learn how to balance it all.
Frank's parenting style was so problematic. Moesha was a mess, but the iron fist doesn't work on everybody and is old fashion. IMO, he didn't understand her grievance for her real mother either.
I see from Frank's point of view as long as you live under his house that's his rules completely understand but he's also a hypocrite too because he had a whole another child outside marriage that he didn't tell any of his family about until the last season 😂
You mean he didn't tell his immediate family about Dorian because his family knew about the him and so did Moesha and Myles' mom. All of them went along with the lie that wasn't even started by Frank and they continued to lie to Moesha, Dorian, and Myles. Because Dee came into his life at a later time and by that time the lie had "become the truth" (not that a lie ever becomes the truth) Frank probably didn't see feel the need to say something to her (messed up as that is.... I guess he had gotten used to Dorian being his nephew).
Frank was awful towards everyone including Moesha, I never realized this until rewatching the series. He never trusted Moesha, he always doubted her, etc.
When I was growing up I was accused a lot that I having sex just because I also had male friends. I reached a point where it was starting to affecting to affect my school work. PS I actually started dating at 18 and had sex at 20.
the reason i love this bc usually when someone leave their parent after doing something wrong, it's usually a big argument between the two. i rlly admire this cuz it doesn't always shave to result in a huge argument
WORD OF ADVICE TO ALL PARENTS OR SOON TO BE PARENTS: IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CHILDREN LYING TO YOU, THEN STOP LYING TO YOUR CHILDREN. YOU WILL GET THE SHORTER END OF THE STICK AND THE KIDS WILL TELL IT LIKE IT IS VERY THICK.
Tbh, this scene only highlights why it's important to be an authoritative parent rather than an authoritarian; One parents and disciplines with the goal of improvement, the other disciplines with the expectation of perfection. Frank used the same stubborn tactics over and over again rather than viewing each situation with nuance or recognizing Moesha as an autonomous, growing and fairly responsible kid who would've been pretty receptive to a heart to heart once in awhile and therein lies the problem. It was like his mindset never changed through every problem she had to work out and so things between them remained stagnant; Their relationship never grew because her own character development was at odds with his lack of development, so every time some new situation arose he had to act like he "didnt know what she would do", which became a trope anyone would get tired of after awhile. He also failed to consider himself as somebody who had a whole lot of growing and learning to do, too, which is where I think they dropped the ball with his character and ultimately caused the shows end. It would've been a game changer to see a black father/parent that started out as an authoritarian, dictative figure who, as time went on, began to acknowledge the value of understanding his children on a deeper level every time they made a mistake and thus fostering closer, less tense relationships with them. It would've made the "child on the side" story arc so much more complex, interesting and cushioned rather than a fucking travesty that outed him as a self-righteous hypocrite. And that's not even my opinion, it's literally why the show ended. That story arc upended what was already a very flimsy character and audiences ended up hating him. But had he been one with nuance he would've had the space to take accountability for his actions plus he could've both examined and reconciled his own shortcomings and how that often times *wrongfully* resulted in projection. I feel like a lot of people wouldve seen it that way too :/
It took me some twenty odd year to realize Frank wasn't a "tough love" caring father, he was an ashy ass misogynist who hated he was losing control of his daughter and scarred and ignored his youngest son to the point where he needed therapy.
we live in a different era men were actually more masculine .. you actually had great black shows and you didnt have reality shows depicting black ignorance . the culture has gotten worse since the 90s so its all how you really look at the big picture
@@ryanr20091 So let me get this straight, More masculine to you means the following: calling your daughter a whore when she goes out with friends and ultimately trying to control her to the point she breaks contact with you, cheating on your wife and having a child that you force your sister to raise it lying to your son and calling him your nephew, and refusing to acknowledge the damage you did to your younger son when he opens up in therapy....that's toxic asf
@@Ariethecomic Now you are arguing points that I never even made in the first place kind of like debating yourself . I hope you know that's what's actually going on . You have to address what a person actually said vs what you just added in .
I can't believe Moesha's dad he's so stubborn, first of all telling Moesha to stay away from Quintin, second sending her to a boarding school, third getting mad at her for sneaking up to Tiwana, fourth shouting at her with a tattoo on stomach & he's telling her to stay away from Jeremy
I always tried my hardest to understand Frank all these years watching this show, I grew up with strict parents as well. But Frank was just a straight up unfair fool, liar, bias and ignorant. So stubborn and never admitted when he was wrong. He's lucky he didn't push Moesha away to the point she was a street girl, cause that could've happened.
He was also a hypocrite who got mad if anybody lied to him about anything but he didn't seem to have a problem with lying to them about Dorian who was really the brother of Moesha & Myles instead of their cousin.
@@Otto8845frank was an asshole people always try to say oh moesha was the problem. She was a brat at times but he always shut everything she wanted or tried to tell him down. He never gave her chances to explain herself or tell her side of the story. Like the episode when Myles was caught smoking and they thought it was moesha. As her father frank she should have protected her from Dee thinking it was her and trying to give her a drug test. But he didn’t he went with it.
Dee never should've told Frank about boys at the slumber party. She knew he was gon' wild out, burst in the party and make a scene. Frank wasn't going to be happy about it.
Frank was militant as hell I get having rules but this man was like a warden I see why she left meanwhile he had a whole son (dorian) ain’t nobody knew about.
You people are weird talking about you hate Frank. Frank was a GREAT dad and because of him, Moesha didn't have kids while in highschool like some of fast heathens.
how was it because of him? she couldve chosen to have sex plenty of times but she didnt out of her own personal convictions. SHE kept herself from that. lol and he was an asshole who turned out to be the biggest hypocrite by hiding a secret child he gave up bc he cheated on his wife. so yea.. he sucks
@@jaydubbs8277 Because he raised her not to be loose. If she wasn't afraid of what he thought or would say, she would have slept with ALL those guys she was with.
And they wonder why miles started smoking half the season they ain't give a funk about him until they found out SMH mo was right for leaving frank needed to let her grow up sorry frank she can't be your lil princess forever as much as that socks its reality
But what made it worse is the fact that he never wanted her near Q and you especially can't forget about the time he went ballistic over Moesha's rose tattoo.
I honestly don’t blame Moesha for wanting to move out again, Frank was so unfair towards her. Moesha was a great person and as like many others teenagers did typical teenage things. She is literally apologizing and he not forgiving her what caused her to move out again.
Even my dad would never be like Frank. He would know I would be telling the truth. See I live right next door to my nana and pas house, so I would move next door with them. But like I said it wont ever happen cause my dad aint like that
I don’t blame Moesha for wanting move out again. Frank was not a fair father towards her. Everything she did, he had a problem with it.
Let's not forget why the reason he moved her into that new school. When frank & Dee caught Q in mo room

Frank was stubborn and did not want Moesha to grow up. The fact that she disobeyed him bruised him but he couldn't see that she was hurting.
Perfectly said.
Exactly you could see when she goes upstairs you could tell he wants to say something but doesn’t know what to say .
Yes he wanted her to grow up. He was protecting her. All you women are good for is raising daughters that turn into strippers
Mean while he kept a secret about Dorian
Frank got on my nerves like the nerve of him She didn’t have sex with Jeremy, they was just talking. She was telling the truth.
Yes that's true but let me ask you this was her and Q talking in her bedroom? Thats why frank was so furious he been here before with Q and moesha in bedroom making out.
@@kobrathadon4956 Amen..so many people especially in the black community don't realize a father will question these things and wen many didn't have a father it appears like frank is unreasonable
I believe Moesha She was not having sex With Jeremy she was talking to him
@@donaldwhiteheadjr1694 She wasn't but she did this same thing before and she lied about boys being at the party so she really made it hard to trust her
Right
That's right Moesha should speak your mind baby
Be strong girl!!!
@@redips Yep she was strong alright and she was still solely dependent on Frank and the other adults in her life.
Worst TV father! She is apologizing and he is still standing there with an attitude. I always hated Frank

I have to give Andell major props for stepping in to take Moesha in until she and Frank "came to an understanding". Too many black kids don't have people they can turn to when they aren't getting along with their parents or when their home life isn't safe or ideal and they turn to the streets or worse and we've seen how that turns out. Big respect to Andell and people like her.

he wants his tweetie time. lol
I hate frank and all other men who feel like they can control their daughters. It’s weird and predator like behavior. The way these men view women as being sex objects and not actual humans deserving of respect
I wouldn't say it's predator like more just overly bearing and never letting her have freedom. I think he does have good intentions he just needs to loosen up and give her space
Aww u stumbled onto the wrong video. Frank is overbearing and stuck up. But he never treated his daughter as a sex object. Take your uninspired feminist rant elsewhere. Shout-out to Dee she was the best character on the show
@@MrStaley yep😂😂😂 trying to fix their ideas in everything
@@MrStaley EXACTLY. He was controlling and overbearing but didn't treat her like a sex object. Sometimes people like this always try to make it into an anti man rant
@@getstompedon2200 It doesn’t matter what his intentions are. The fact is his behavior is terrible and that’s it. It’s weirdly possessive and so I won’t blame someone if they were to view it as predatory. Cuz that’s how predatory men tend to act anyhow. Or at least just the one factor
Man seeing bernie mac and andel is like a little bit of sadness two great talents gone to soon
Bro was toooo fucking strict. I would’ve never came back.
I would’ve cussed him out and left
I love this show very much. Brings back so many memories
Moesha needed to apologize but so did Frank he jumped to conclusion and embarrassed her. Doesn't she deserve an apology?
My point exactly
Frank is by far the most stubborn no by far the most stubborn fathers I never seen on TV. Moesha Said everything is true. He didn’t take the time to really listen to her and understand. She has since she just went downstairs and just talked and that’s it. Frank can’t seem to let his pride go
I respectfully disagree with you lol. This one scene doesn't do it any justice for Moesha behavior at times. It just made Frank out to be an unfair parent. And that was not the case. Mo was no angel on the show when it started. She always got into something but she was also in high school and finding her way in life as a teenager. But she always got into something, you will just have to watch the episodes that lead up to this scene. Cause Mo use to be buggin out😂😂 she was the female version of her brother Dorian (Ray J) during the early stages of the sbow. And he gave Frank more hell than Mo did lol. Frank wasn't always the most easy going father at times. But he protected his daughter just like most fathers would. He even caught her and Q almost about to have sex in her room. Without even knowing it. And that wasn't even in the episodes just yet that was later on down the road on the show. And we all know he didn't approve of Q at all. Cause he was just a "thug" to Frank. But he was just a cool chilled hood dude that love Moesha.
@@jarvasedundy1 You need to shut up. You don't know the meaning of the word protection.
@@wonderwoman5732
Girl shut up, I haven't responded to your annoying ass in months. You basically been talking to yourself. You that butthurt over Frank and a tv show. You need to seek canceling. I have tried to be rational with you when we started going back and forth months ago. And tried to understand from your piont of view and give my perspective too. You don't know nothing about me or what I've been through in life. Let it go and move on. Or go seek help. Cause you are obviously dealing with some past life trauma
He really Is . He gets on my nerves and is a complete hypocrite . Like he gets mad at her for every little thing but it’s ok for him to hide a son for 18 years
Don't mind me just looking at the "Frank get on my nerves" comments 😂
LOL
and liking all of them too LOL
Dee, brandy & andele are so beautiful !
Every time Brandy talks, it seems like she’s singing in every episode of Moesha❤ she still is damn beautiful Brandy❤
I feel bad & sorry 4 Mo 4 being accused by having sex which was she wasn’t her father should’ve asked her what was she doing up stairs with Jeremy when he saw them coming downstairs her & Jeremy was just talking.
in pajamas coming down the stairs... can you blame him? Now after she didn't say she have sex and he didn't believe her, then I blame Frank for that.
She LIED about the party in the first place. U can't blame him for hesitating to believe her
Frank had the nerve to be mad at Moesha when he lied the whole time and Dorian was his son. Smh. Just trifling
Frank lied, Moesha's mom lied, Moesha's aunt lied, and so did the members of there extended family. Every time they referred to Dorian as Moesha and Myles' cousin or the son of Frank's sister and brother-in-law they all lied.
Right what a hypocrite smh 😠 😠😠
@CoilsFit4aQueen The fact still remains that the entire family except Dee lied to those kids. Just because Dorian's parents are the ones responsible for him doesn't make it ok for the entire family to participate in the lie.
@@MissLadyG99 Yet the entire family isnt Moeshas father who specifically treats moesha like every little thing she does is punishable by law. Thats what we mean when we lambaste Frank, specifically, for being a hypocrite. That's the difference. That's the context
@@iliveontheinternet1009 I know the show and the context of it. The still remains that the entire family lied to those kids. They didn't have to participate in the lie instead it was Frank's sister who came up with the lie.
These frank and mo fights were too delicious 😊
Brandy is such a Legend. Wow! I can't wait to see her new show "Queens", with Eve and Naturi Naughton on ABC Primetime
saw it......damn shame they killed it after a handful of episodes
The acting is perfect
Harriet Winslow was less strict when Laura came home late from her curfew
Dee is one cool momma. 😂
RIP Uncle Bernie 🙏🏽💯💖😢
Here's the thing with me because I grew up on this show. Its apart of my childhood. Moesha was very mature for her age physically and intellectually. They wanted her to be responsible but they also wanted her to stay a kid. Teen years are very tricky because your body is going through changes and then you have boys that you are interested in and then you have school to focus on and your parents expect you to do chores and have responsibilities. You gotta learn how to balance it all.
That's adulthood.
Frank's parenting style was so problematic. Moesha was a mess, but the iron fist doesn't work on everybody and is old fashion. IMO, he didn't understand her grievance for her real mother either.
I never noticed how tall Bernie Mac was
P.S. He was 6'2
I see from Frank's point of view as long as you live under his house that's his rules completely understand but he's also a hypocrite too because he had a whole another child outside marriage that he didn't tell any of his family about until the last season 😂
You mean he didn't tell his immediate family about Dorian because his family knew about the him and so did Moesha and Myles' mom. All of them went along with the lie that wasn't even started by Frank and they continued to lie to Moesha, Dorian, and Myles. Because Dee came into his life at a later time and by that time the lie had "become the truth" (not that a lie ever becomes the truth) Frank probably didn't see feel the need to say something to her (messed up as that is.... I guess he had gotten used to Dorian being his nephew).
Exactly he’s not as prefect as he claims to be
Frank was awful towards everyone including Moesha, I never realized this until rewatching the series. He never trusted Moesha, he always doubted her, etc.
I hate Frank
This is not the first time Moesha moved out.
when was the first tho?
@@medylemaproductions oh, my bad. I was talking about when she moved out after Frank's revelation.
This is her 1st but it wasn’t her last
@@sincerelyjaijharnaerose757 right. Thanks
Moseha always moved out
When I was growing up I was accused a lot that I having sex just because I also had male friends. I reached a point where it was starting to affecting to affect my school work. PS I actually started dating at 18 and had sex at 20.
Bernie was easily the highlight of the show😂 Rip Bernie Mac
If I talk to my dad like that, the kind of slap my dad would have given me🤦🏾♀️😑🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao me too girl !! 😂😂😂 but ik he loved me to death and meant well he just had rules that I had to obey I lived and got over it 😂😂😂
the reason i love this bc usually when someone leave their parent after doing something wrong, it's usually a big argument between the two. i rlly admire this cuz it doesn't always shave to result in a huge argument
No yelling no cussing just trying to be civil
I really didn't like this. Moesha truly apologized but Frank didn't accept her apology. He didn't even give her a chance to explain🤦🏾♀️😭
Exactly like don’t tell her you accept her apology and you don’t
WORD OF ADVICE TO ALL PARENTS OR SOON TO BE PARENTS: IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CHILDREN LYING TO YOU, THEN STOP LYING TO YOUR CHILDREN. YOU WILL GET THE SHORTER END OF THE STICK AND THE KIDS WILL TELL IT LIKE IT IS VERY THICK.
Thank you you speaking facts 💯💯💯
@@moneyman7057 No problem.
I LOVE HER VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!
Me too
Tbh, this scene only highlights why it's important to be an authoritative parent rather than an authoritarian; One parents and disciplines with the goal of improvement, the other disciplines with the expectation of perfection. Frank used the same stubborn tactics over and over again rather than viewing each situation with nuance or recognizing Moesha as an autonomous, growing and fairly responsible kid who would've been pretty receptive to a heart to heart once in awhile and therein lies the problem. It was like his mindset never changed through every problem she had to work out and so things between them remained stagnant; Their relationship never grew because her own character development was at odds with his lack of development, so every time some new situation arose he had to act like he "didnt know what she would do", which became a trope anyone would get tired of after awhile.
He also failed to consider himself as somebody who had a whole lot of growing and learning to do, too, which is where I think they dropped the ball with his character and ultimately caused the shows end. It would've been a game changer to see a black father/parent that started out as an authoritarian, dictative figure who, as time went on, began to acknowledge the value of understanding his children on a deeper level every time they made a mistake and thus fostering closer, less tense relationships with them. It would've made the "child on the side" story arc so much more complex, interesting and cushioned rather than a fucking travesty that outed him as a self-righteous hypocrite. And that's not even my opinion, it's literally why the show ended. That story arc upended what was already a very flimsy character and audiences ended up hating him. But had he been one with nuance he would've had the space to take accountability for his actions plus he could've both examined and reconciled his own shortcomings and how that often times *wrongfully* resulted in projection. I feel like a lot of people wouldve seen it that way too :/
Wow very profound analysis
Frank projected his insecurities and his flaws on Moesha
I never knew Bernie was in this show. 😂😂😂 he make even the smallest parts funny af R.IP
You guys see Frank and Moesha, I see T.I and his daughter!
Ti is way worse.
Jajaja same here
It's the fact he tried to be super strict and be on a high horse with a secret son for me....😂
Moesha, i am so PROUD of you for moving out. You finally take control of your life.
It took me some twenty odd year to realize Frank wasn't a "tough love" caring father, he was an ashy ass misogynist who hated he was losing control of his daughter and scarred and ignored his youngest son to the point where he needed therapy.
we live in a different era men were actually more masculine .. you actually had great black shows and you didnt have reality shows depicting black ignorance . the culture has gotten worse since the 90s so its all how you really look at the big picture
None of that makes sense lmaaao
@@ryanr20091 So let me get this straight, More masculine to you means the following: calling your daughter a whore when she goes out with friends and ultimately trying to control her to the point she breaks contact with you, cheating on your wife and having a child that you force your sister to raise it lying to your son and calling him your nephew, and refusing to acknowledge the damage you did to your younger son when he opens up in therapy....that's toxic asf
@@BlackOwnedDollars are you referring to ryan or myself?
@@Ariethecomic Now you are arguing points that I never even made in the first place kind of like debating yourself . I hope you know that's what's actually going on . You have to address what a person actually said vs what you just added in .
I can't believe Moesha's dad he's so stubborn, first of all telling Moesha to stay away from Quintin, second sending her to a boarding school, third getting mad at her for sneaking up to Tiwana, fourth shouting at her with a tattoo on stomach & he's telling her to stay away from Jeremy
This clip alone is making me wanna binge the whole show!!
I always tried my hardest to understand Frank all these years watching this show, I grew up with strict parents as well. But Frank was just a straight up unfair fool, liar, bias and ignorant. So stubborn and never admitted when he was wrong. He's lucky he didn't push Moesha away to the point she was a street girl, cause that could've happened.
Frank should have trusted moesha more. This is why they were always at odds.
He was also a hypocrite who got mad if anybody lied to him about anything but he didn't seem to have a problem with lying to them about Dorian who was really the brother of Moesha & Myles instead of their cousin.
@@Otto8845 YESSSSSSSS like frank was a piece of work low key hated him
@@allisonhall7211 I don't see why he had to be a hypocritical man. I wished that he raised the kids better than how he raised them in this show.
@@Otto8845frank was an asshole people always try to say oh moesha was the problem. She was a brat at times but he always shut everything she wanted or tried to tell him down. He never gave her chances to explain herself or tell her side of the story. Like the episode when Myles was caught smoking and they thought it was moesha. As her father frank she should have protected her from Dee thinking it was her and trying to give her a drug test. But he didn’t he went with it.
@@allisonhall7211 that's horrible
I loved Uncle Bernie “Tweety “
Frank is a control freak
Dee never should've told Frank about boys at the slumber party. She knew he was gon' wild out, burst in the party and make a scene. Frank wasn't going to be happy about it.
Frank was militant as hell I get having rules but this man was like a warden I see why she left meanwhile he had a whole son (dorian) ain’t nobody knew about.
RIP Bernie Mac and Yvette "Andell" Wilson
A serious scene and as usual, the mac man steals the show 😂😂
You people are weird talking about you hate Frank. Frank was a GREAT dad and because of him, Moesha didn't have kids while in highschool like some of fast heathens.
Well yeah that's true to
how was it because of him? she couldve chosen to have sex plenty of times but she didnt out of her own personal convictions. SHE kept herself from that. lol and he was an asshole who turned out to be the biggest hypocrite by hiding a secret child he gave up bc he cheated on his wife. so yea.. he sucks
@@jaydubbs8277 Because he raised her not to be loose. If she wasn't afraid of what he thought or would say, she would have slept with ALL those guys she was with.
When people be like Moesha was toxic... I mean look at her daddy.
I love the hairstyle on Brandy I want my hair done like that
Frank was so much harder on Moesha than he was Myles or Dorian.
@Dominick Sansotta Me too.
Frank Dirty Balls Mitchell was hard on both Moesha and Dorian. Not good at all.
They’re boys
Frank was so lame. It seemed like after his wife died, all he cared about was work and Dee. His kids were physically taken care of but that was it
Rest in peace Bernie Mac the funniest man on Moesha 😂😂😂
I Love This Part!!!!
And they wonder why miles started smoking half the season they ain't give a funk about him until they found out SMH mo was right for leaving frank needed to let her grow up sorry frank she can't be your lil princess forever as much as that socks its reality
Funny how Frank treated his kids the way he discipline them, but cheated on his wife and created a son with his wife’s sister.
Frank just didnt want her to be taken advantage of. Simple
Brandy is an icon give her........her 💐
Frank is strict like my dad was. He loves her but doesn't know how to deal with his daughter growing up
Come on now. He is her father. Give him some credit. Teenagers can be rebellious, they need to obey rules.
Frank was too much seriously but Mo was spoiled af ! Frank was obsessive over her
But what made it worse is the fact that he never wanted her near Q and you especially can't forget about the time he went ballistic over Moesha's rose tattoo.
2:21 Look at Bernie's eyes, lol. He still need some lovin from his tweetie.
Frank acting like he use to check hymens like TI😂😂😂😂😂
They were wrong for not questioning Miles when they found the weed. Instead they kept questioning Moesha.
Even growing up without my dad for 24 years because of jail, I still didn’t prefer a “father” like Frank.
GOD means EVERYTHING to me🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
This show was so good 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
I honestly don’t blame Moesha for wanting to move out again, Frank was so unfair towards her. Moesha was a great person and as like many others teenagers did typical teenage things. She is literally apologizing and he not forgiving her what caused her to move out again.
Frank had some nerve living a double lfe
Even my dad would never be like Frank. He would know I would be telling the truth. See I live right next door to my nana and pas house, so I would move next door with them. But like I said it wont ever happen cause my dad aint like that
I feel like dee does not get enough credits for being a really good mom.
