Season 2 of the Amazon Prime Video series Harlem is back after over a year’s hiatus, and fans are eating it up. While much of the focus is on the crazy love stories, a standout on the show is Shoniqua Shandi, who gives her larger-than-life character Angie much flavor. This season, Angie steps out on her own in a way that surprises her fans. And Shandai admits that it takes her friend group some getting use to.
Angie is the dreamer of the friend of the bunch in ‘Harlem’
Harlem follows the lives of four Black women in their 30’s at various stages of love and career who rely on one another to get them through life. Camille (Meagan Good) is a philosophy professor vying for tenure at the university she teaches at. Tye (Jerrie Johnson) is killing it in the tech space and lacking in the love department as an openly queer woman. Quinn (Grace Byers) is the conservative, more uptight one of the bunch who is the fashionista. And then there’s Angie (Shandai), a struggling artist who lands her big break in a local stage play only for it to come to an end prematurely, partially to her doing.
