TV show description:
From Jamey Giddens and Will Packer, the Ambitions TV show is a primetime soap opera. Unfolding in Atlanta, Georgia, the family drama delves into the the ways sex, love, power, and politics play out in The ATL.
The series centers on former college best friends Stephanie Lancaster (Givens) and Amara Hughes (Atkins), who are now high-powered attorneys at odds in both the personal and professional arenas of their lives.
Stephanie is from a long line of lawyers. She is determined to take the reins of her family’s famous firm, and will not let anyone or anything stop her from achieving her goal.
Stephanie isn’t the only ambitious person in her household. Her husband, Evan (White), is currently the Mayor of Atlanta and dreams of serving as the state’s first African American governor.
A Texas native, and accomplished prosecutor, Amara is a newcomer to Atlanta and now plies her trade in US Attorney’s office. Her husband Titus (Cross) has taken the job of in-house counsel at a big pharmaceutical company helmed by Hunter Purifoy (Bosworth).
Mayor Lancaster’s sister, Rondell Lancaster (Evans) manages a restaurant called Thelma’s place. She has recently gone all-in on a grass-roots movement to combat gentrification and is steadfast in her commitment to it.
Rounding out this cast of characters is celebrated new fashion designer, Bella “Tru” Trujillo (Page). As the city’s first lady, Stephanie wears her designs exclusively, but Tru has her eyes set on a bigger prize, just like everyone else in town.
Episode #18 — Save The Best For Last
Stephanie enjoys a major professional success; Evan gains an unlikely ally; Rondell reaches a breaking point with Darcia; Greg finally one-ups his cousin, Natasha.
First aired: December 17, 2019.
What do you think? Do you like Ambitions TV series? Should this OWN TV show have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I am so disappointed that Ambitions is not being picked up for another season. How could you leave us in suspense with a cliffhanger? Why???? I along with so many other viewers would really appreciate you re-thinking the decision to cancel. Please go back to the boardroom and breathe life back to this show!!!
I can’t believe this is canceled. This is a great show. I have my whole family watching. We were waiting for the next session. Robin Givens does an excellent job!
I know!!!! My family, too! I hope BET or TVONE picks it up.
Why has the TV show Ambitions been given a cancelled. Sometimes networks don’t understand that they are playing two or more of people’s favorite shows at the same time. It’s unfair and I want to see a second season of Ambitions. The actors are fabulous to see and the work they are doing is soooooo good! I always have to catch up to any of these shows by going outside of my home because I can’t even afford cable. So that should tell you something. Please bring the darn show back!!!!
Please renew!!!!! Great show!!!!
How could you, renew please!!! OMG!!!!
I enjoyed Ambition and Love, I wish they would bring both shows back. I enjoy seeing black people on the screen, and I thought that Robin Givens and the rest of the cast gave very good performances in their roles. I don’t understand why good shows seem to be cancelled and the really bad ones are renewed. I think Robin Givens is truly under-rated, she is very talented and I wish her the very best in her future endeavors. I wish the same for the other actors as well. So sorry to hear that Ambition is being cancelled. I think… Read more »

Love the show
I Love this show. I like how it portrays Beautiful, Handsome and Intelligent African Americans in Professional, High Income Bracket and Critical careers who are working and as scandalous as they come lol. Real Life and Real World type of stuff. I enjoy watching the show, how it’s unpredictable and how it keeps me wondering what’s going to happen next. Great Job writers and cast.
I absolutely LOVE this show!!! Love the characters, keeps you on edge and wanting more!!! Can’t wait for the next season!
I love the show. My mom, who is 91 years young and I watch the show every week. We love it!
This show was mind blowing, exciting, always waiting to see what’s next. Love the whole cast. Couldn’t get enough of Robin Givens. She was Sexy, Intriguing, Scandalous. Smart, and Beautiful. It Gave Us everything, Sex, Lies, And Ambition.
Love this show it is exciting from beginning to the end! I never watch any TV series and this one has kept me watching every week! Don’t cancel it!
I like the show and the story line. Too bad you couldn’t have found someone other than Robin Givins to play Stephanie. Guess you need someone hate-able and she is hate-able!
Love it!!!!! Please keep it going. I can’t wait for the next episodes!
