*** Recommended  If you’re in the mood for laughs, get to The Second City for "We Always Bounce Black: A Black Excellence Comedy Revue."  This funny show is built around something called BEN or the Black Excellence Network – on cable or streaming is never specified – with sketches about mini sit-coms, quiz shows and so on. A lot of the content was specific to the black community but I can attest that whites in the audience laughed too as the talented cast pokes fun at most everything.  3 ½ Spotlights
