After having to endure nearly a year of rumors and false hopes, fans of The Game are finally getting the news they’ve been waiting for.
First airing on UPN, The Game began as a spin-off of the long-running comedy, Girlfriends. The series centers around a first year medical student (Tia Mowry) who chooses to follow her pro-football boyfriend (Pooch Hall) to San Diego. Others in the cast include Brittany Daniel, Coby Bell, Wendy Raquel Robinson, Hosea Chanchez, and Barry Floyd.
In September, news surfaced about the show being revived but nothing happened. In October, there were more rumors but still nothing happened. Then, in November, the cast reunited on The Mo’Nique Show. Promos showed the host asking the cast if The Game was coming back but that portion was edited out of the final broadcast without explanation.
Last month, a much stronger rumor about The Game’s return surfaced with the show’s stars insinuating that an actual announcement would be forthcoming.
Today, BET made it official. The Game will be coming back in the last few months of this year.
There’s no definitive word yet on how many episodes have been commissioned or if some or all of the castmembers will return. We’ll keep you posted as details become available.
What do you think? Did you think that this day would ever come? Would you still be happy if all of the actors weren’t able to return?
i willbe so glad to see the show i just want to see what happend to everyone. i think it deserve i final chapter.
Can you please keep me posted on when the new episodes start.. As long as Derwin and Melanie dont get off the show I will be so happy that its back. This show is truly amazing I dont know what I would do without it !
I love the game!! i’m really really happy it’ll be back
i am so happy my show is coming bakk…it needs 2 hurry up…wat is tha game without melodie and derwin…..i hope it is the same actors
I think that all the folks who was on the show should come back it’ll not be the same with different actors because no one could play the parts that good like the real one. And I hope that they come back on the real soon and no jokes either and come on at less hour show if not around 9pm on a Friday hope to see the Game on Tv soon
I cannot believe that The Game is coming back… Super excited. I still believe that it’s the closest we’ll ever get to a black Soap Opera. I’ve been a fan since day one and I was devastated when the show was canceled. The Game is one of the few shows that I would watch and actually think “This show is frickin awesome” while I was watching it. I can’t wait to have a good ol’ “Game” night with the girls ;D
Yayyyyyy!!..I AM SO EXCITED I love this show I always watch the reruns on bet lol but I cant wait for the new season. (:
I am excited that “The Game” is back. I am a true fan of the show, have watched it from the beginning and have seen all episodes. I think I went through withdrawal when the show went off the air. For me the show offers more than just comedy. The characters are great, the story-line’s are believable.
Thanks for bringing the Game back. Can’t wait for the new season
YES, I KNEW THIS TIME WOULD COME AND I WANT ALL OF THE CAST BACK IT WAS A HELL OF A SHOW. I LOVE IT WATCH THE OLD EPISODES EVERYDAY ON BET. I THINK THEY SHOULD WRITE CAMILLE OUT OF THE PICTURE AND PUT THE PITTS BACK TOGETHER.
I would love if the entire cast comes back. If I had to choose a couple of people to lose it would have to be Camille (Stacey Dash ). I love the Rick and Tasha affair. Also bring in a new wife and player will be hot.
I am sooooooooo happy to hear that “The Game” will be coming back! I have been praying that producers, cast, and fans wouldn’t give up on trying to get this back on air. I’ve been lingering on to past episodes, and praying for more. I would love to see the complete cast return, but at this point I’ll take what I can get!
I agree with p holland…..i love the game from day one i saw the previews and i know that would b a show i would love to watch and the day it premier i was on time and neva miss a episode since….i love all the characters because each one bring something to the table…i do hope that they bring back the same exact characters…cw have brought shows thats funny dramatic funny that i love very much like the game and girlfriends…
And sorry I watch sitcomes that go as far back as the 1950’s. I still watcd The Patty Duke Show, Mr. Ed, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Mash, etc. etc. etc. They had messages and they were funny.
I think that’s great. The show actually is better than I thought it would be when it first came on. It turned out to be pretty good and I was dissappointed when it went off of the air. The CW has a bad habit of canceling good shows that inspire women and people of color. A lot of the shows do have substance and provide some good messages to people of all ages, genders and races, but for some reason those shows seem to never last. The shows that promote a lot of sex and violence seem to last. Lets… Read more »
I am so glad that we get a chance to see what the cast rtn….. want the entire cast …..but I must see Jason & Kelly get back together.
