The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl

Issa Rae produced and stars in the American comedic online series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl. On February 3, 2011, it debuted on a dedicated YouTube channel. The sitcom follows J as she interacts with coworkers and love partners who put her in awkward circumstances. J generally communicates how she thinks about her surroundings through a voice-over or a dream scene, therefore the story is delivered in the first person.

Awkward Black Girl has been lauded by critics for its sharp comedy and distinct, genuine representation of African-American women. The play is described as "full of crisp, pointillist wit that's quite invigorating" by New York Times critic Jon Ceramica. In 2012, the series received a Shorty Award for Best Web Series.
