Unfortunately, there’s still no official word on BET picking up the CW’s discarded-but-beloved sitcom, The Game. While there have been plenty of rumors (here and here for example), it hasn’t happened yet.
The latest rumor of The Game being revived came last month when some of the cast tweeted that they were heading to Atlanta. Some jumped to the conclusion that they were flying in to start shooting new episodes. Not so.
They were actually reuniting for a special episode of The Mo’Nique Show, a talk show hosted by actress and comedienne Mo’Nique. Those taking part are Coby Bell, Hosea Chanchez, Brittany Daniel, Pooch Hall, Tia Mowry, and Wendy Raquel Robinson.
The cast reunion airs tonight at 10pm on BET and hopefully fans will finally hear that the revival is “Game on!”
What do you think? Will you be watching? Is this a good sign for The Game’s future or just a way to get ratings for Mo’Nique?
UPDATE: Though previews showed Mo’Nique asking the cast “Is The Game coming back?,” this portion was edited out of the actual show. No mention of the sitcom’s future was made. Disappointed?

Messed up real messed up mo’nique how could you stand the fans up like that we are all pumped up to see what they were gonna say then you bust out and don’t even ask the question this could really effect your veiwers outlook on your show I’m really dissapointed. I mean come on its ok to say you might ask them the question but to have all the promo’s about you asking the question then just have us sitting there watching the whole show waiting just to find out you were not gonna ask the question. I only got… Read more »
I think that was just a way for mo’nique to get her ratings up that’s messed up I never watched her show then I see the commercials thinking she’s finally gonna say what I want to hear then when it came on I’m sitting at the tv watching on and on in anticipation for her to pop the question not once did it come up. Mo’nique I’m dissappointed in your show you shouldn’t have left your fans or the game fans hangin like that I was a fan of yours on the parkers so I didn’t mind tunring on your… Read more »
Im extremly disappointed because I wasted my time watching Moniques show and they mentioned nothing about whether they were coming back on air to BET or anybody for that matter…All I wanna say is that the game is an EXCELLENT show n it needs more recognition for goodness sake..Those people at the CW r crazy for letting the game go.I mean all they care about is 90210,gossip girls,and melrose place, and all thos other shows that i find boring and so typical..so BRING BACK THE GAME!!!! its a must!!
I think that they were wrong to show the promo where she asked was the show coming back and we never saw her ask that question to the cast. I think that BET did that so people would watch the Monique show and that was wrong. They still have not put out anything definite about whether the show is coming back or not and that is just wrong. Don’t they care about what the fans think? They should not keep us lingering like this.
that was very messed up she let us down im might stop watching that moniqu show now =[
It is horrible that we were teased that way by the Monique show to think we would get our long awaited answer but on the flip side I think it may be an indicator that something is going on. I will keep hoping and waiting. Please bring the Game back!!
BET….what happened? I saw “The Mo’Nique Show” promos, and she asked the question “Is “The Game” coming back?” But I saw that they cut it. Why? Is BET and CBS TV Studios still finalizing the deal? I hope BET announces something soon, because its so wrong for the network to promote “the reunion” with Mo’Nique asking the question, all of the fans have been waiting for to hear for months…..and NOT show the important question or the answer.
I am a HUGE HUGE HUGE fan of the game…I have all the episodes taped. Normally I wouldn’t write in for a “T.V.” ‘ show however, I do believe the show is worth being picked up by BET besides just look at the ratings they are recieving from the reruns…They should atleast try it out for half a season. Why should they take a pay cut if it wasn’t for the previous episodes who would be watching BET even 106 & park isn’t the same, BET you need help, I know if I have to keep watching the same episodes… Read more »
i think by the game coming on the monique show is asign for the game to continue so please continue the show
Thanks Monique for allowing us to reunite with our favorite sitcom THE GAME. It was like watching them all over again. To BET saving the game from cancellation would be a gold mine in the future due to the many viewers who are still awaiting to watch the next cycle. I think that even with pay cuts the sitcom would bring in so much money that they could go back to normal after the first season on BET. I’ll be patiently waiting for the decision hopefully it’ll be the one expected.
I am very upset…I justed watch the show and they she did not even ask them if the show was coming back (or it was edited out)…either way, “we,” the fans, still don’t know!
i watched that whole show and i didn’t even hear monique ask were they coming back.
I reeally hope the game comes back for another season…whether it be BET or CW. This is a great show…funny & real! The game has great fans, please don’t disappoint. BRING BACK THE GAME!
Monique’s show is horrible! She is entirely too loud and think she is unaware that she has on a microphone.. Please get her off the TELEVISION… I would stay stick to a movie where plays the co-star!
I hope that the game finds a home at BET and is saved from cancellation. The CW had a diamond in its hands and had no idae what to do with it. Truth be told I never heard of or watched the show before it came on BET. I think if BET saves it would definitely be a good call. I mean honestly we have no good shows with African American actors anymore. Tyler Perry’s house of Payne is about all we’ve got left. So please please please BET save the game!
