    A BET Mess

    This was my show when it first came out, but then BET got hold of it and ruined the last seasons of it. It just became a ratchet show with no substance. Lauren London and Blue together is too much bad acting for one show to withstand. They were corny and childish. Everybody had to be made immoral. The show went from a 10 to a 3 with the changing of networks. I give it a 7 because the original on the CW outweighs the nonsense of BET. And lastly, how you gone have a show without the 2 main characters, Derwin and Melanie?

    Great at first

    In the beginning this show was awesome and hilarious when they had the original cast. After half of the originals left and they switched networks and brought in new people, the show went DOWNHILL. Its a shame.

    My 8 out of 10 review is for the first few seasons with the originals. But for the last seasons after they made big changes, I rate it a 1 out of 10 seriously.

    Outdated but Entertaining

    As always, media quickly gets outdated. This show is definitely outdated in societal rules and what's okay to say or not say like body shaming, the idea of a working woman, etc. But it's still funny and entertaining to watch.

    The new Game

    This New season of the series "The Game" has been OK. It's had ups and downs. But overall grade has to be a "C+". Until tonight, I had to stop my self from changing the channel. It was just overly dramatic, way to short and not enough substance. The writing this season was totally subpar compared to the prior seasons. The show seems to be moving more towards a bad daytime Soap Opera.

    While acting on this show has grown in spite of the script. There is a foul stench of reality TV starting to seep in. Mara Brock Akil and Kelsey Grammar need to take a look how the show was originally produced and try to find a happy harmony between the and now. Salim Akil should take notes from his directing from season two. It feels like the show as a hold has lost its true direction.

    Most of us fell in love with this show because of the subtle insight into the lives of Pro Football players and their families, friends, and franchise. The Sabers were becoming one of America's teams. They were replacing the new Cowboys for me. California hasn't had a winner like this since Joe Montana and the 49ers. We didn't want the show to become a blend of "T.Ocho Show" meets "Basketball Wives" with a twist of "Days of Our Lives". The writers should be afraid for there jobs. Tasha Mack was a hopeless shell of her former self since the old series finale (Season 3 Finale). When did Derwin Davis become the sneakiest back stabbing character. They have given him sort of multiple personality complex thing going. "You my boy Malik", " Yo 'F' you Malik!" "Let's get you to rehab Malik." "Man Malik's career is over Yo 'F' him." Isn't he the church boy? Is Derwin and Jason the same character now? Is every character the same type of person! What happen to the diversity in the roles. This is not the show we all clamored and protested for since 2009 through 2010.

    Congrats to the actors for true growth. "Tee-Tee" Barry Floyd, you my boy, and Terrence J. (Terrence Jenkins) as Donte has given the best performances this season. Keep growing and going my brothers. The actors have the ability, now writers give them better words for their voices to shine.

    Complete and utter crap.

    Do not waste your time with this show. The writing is so childish and it promotes the worst of the worst stereotypes among African Americans. The first three seasons of this show were decent when it was on the CW, but since moving to BET, the writing, directing, production value, and overall direction of the show has gone so down hill, it is at the bottom of the ocean's floor knocking on Hell's gate. I don't have one good word to say about this show. It is amateurish and anyone and everyone associated with this show should be embarrassed.

    Now that Tia Mowry has left the show, there really is no point in continuing. She was the lead character. The show followed her relationship with a football player and her friendships. When she left, she took the last shred of class with her.

    • Trivia
      For the 2009 season, CW changed programming strategy. Due to the rising costs of production expenses, the network decided it was cheaper to produce hour-long dramas instead of half-hour comedy programming. In anticipation of the change, the producers of this show wrote an hour-long season finale with no laugh track.
