Coby Bell said The Game showed characters from different walks of life

Fictional worlds can be diverse; the only limits are the writers and production companies behind them. As viewers, we get tired of seeing the same settings on television and in movies.

A few shows had a breakthrough, creating characters from all walks of life who ended up in the same circle. Look at The Game, for example. The series did a great job telling the stories of a diverse group of characters without overdoing it.

Tasha Mack was a teenage mom without a strong support system. She didn't let that stop her from ensuring her son, Malik, followed his dreams. Malik was drafted to the San Diego Sabers, signing a massive contract and earning the name "Mr. $40 Million." Tasha was his agent and earned a hefty income from the sponsorships and deals she secured for him.

Then there is Melanie Barnett, an aspiring doctor who didn't have to struggle. She grew up in a middle-class household with two wealthy parents. We can't forget Kelly Pitts. The wife of veteran wide receiver Jason Pitts didn't grow up in a lavish lifestyle. She had a trailer park upbringing and was a cheerleader for the Sabers, which is how she met her husband.

Coby Bell, the actor who brought Jason to life, praised the show for its diverse characters.

"Within the African-American community, there are all different kinds of people with different kinds of ways of going about their lives. But I think The Game represents that spectrum," he told The Root during an interview. "You got everyone from Melanie, who went to med school, and she's a doctor. And you got Jason, who was raised by a football player and raised in the suburbs. And then you have Tasha, who's representing the so-called hood. And I think that's a pretty dynamic view of African-American life."
