(BET)
Set in a New York legal aid office, In Contempt follows outspoken attorney Gwen Sullivan (Ash) as she deals with complicated cases. She works with quick-witted and egotistical lawyer Charlie Riggs (Christian Keyes) and gets advice from her stern father, Earl Sullivan (Richard Lawson), a former judge. Additional cast members include Daniel Kash, Megan Hutchings, Mouna Traore, Ronnie Rowe Jr., and Tobias Truvillion.
The BET series debuted on April 10, 2018, and ran until June 12, 2018. There are 10 episodes.
BET released the following statement: “At this time, BET Networks will not be moving forward with a second season of In Contempt. We are grateful to the incredible cast and producers. We would especially like to thank and recognize the acclaimed Executive Producers Terri Kopp, who created the series, Lance Samuels and Daniel Iron. We look forward to finding ways to continue in partnership. We are also excited to continue our relationship with the star of In Contempt, Erica Ash as she is set to star along Paula Patton in the film Sacrifice premiering this fall on BET+.”
What do you think? Did you like the In Contempt TV show on BET? Should it have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season?
In the show Contempt, it was a very amazing show and should have been a season 2. The fact it was canceled, speaks volumes. They want us to think it’s just for entertainment. But the truth is alot of it was Facts and they want people to stay sleep.Wake up people get out of this darkness.
Please bring back in contempt back this way my first time watching it I hope you think about bringing it in 2024 season 2
Season two of in content thought it was a very good show
The show is now trending on BET and I was intrigued and watched it. I’m so disappointed that it ended. I definitely would have continued to watch the show. It had a great storyline and kept you on the edge of your seat. It seems the good shows on BET get canceled. It would be nice if someone revived old shows instead of creating new ones. Now I’ll never know who Tess Capenelli is or if Gwen chooses Charlie, or if Bennett went back to Ashley, or if Gwen’s dad makes it. I often wonder who sits on these panels… Read more »
Please bring In Contempt back please this was a really good show I watch it over and over and I told people about it also and they love it
I just stumbled upon “In Contempt” will flipping through my BET+ channels. I cannot not believe it was cancelled. The storyline and characters were real. Is BET against airing shows that depict African Americans as educated, intelligent and/or in control? I’m considering cancelling my membership of this channel because it appears every time I get use to an original series (Ambitions, The Quad), its cancelled. I guess if you act ignorant or ghetto, the show will remain. Really disappointed in BET for cancelling this show. Please reconsider and resurrect the show.
