TV show description:
From creators Felicia D. Henderson and Charles Holland, The Quad TV show unfolds at Georgia A&M University, one of the nation’s most prestigious HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities). As the school’s newly elected president, Dr. Eva Fletcher (Rose) has to balance her personal life with her career and the needs of her students.
The administration, faculty, and GAMU student body share one goal in common — making a name for themselves. There is plenty of passion and controversy for everyone, including the sometimes secretive Dr. Fletcher. Still, she needs to think of the university’s future, and do everything she can to keep it solvent and independent.
As friendships form and fade, and people switch alliances, confront scandal, and deal with protest, everyone tries to keep their eyes on the prize.
Series Finale:
Episode #19, “#TheColorPurple”
GAMU’s students decide to take matters into their own hands; it’s time for a revolution! Concerned about whether Bronwyn is pregnant, or just trying to trap her son, Cedric’s mother pays him a surprise visit and then takes matters into her own hands. BoJohn’s father shows up ready to take him. (Courtesy of BET)

What do you think? Do you like The Quad TV series? Should this TV show be cancelled or renewed for another season on BET?
Okay, I grew up watching BET. But I can honestly say, they do the dumbest things! This show was one of its best BET had! Why would they do that! Really, not only did this show shine a light on taboo topics like campus rape. But it was a great show that helped a lot of the new generation kids find their way through this world! Canceling this show is CRAZY people! I even saw this show having a spin-off as they grew up. Showing most of us young adults how to deal with the fact of having a degree,… Read more »
Not right! I am not the only viewer who is disappointed about this cancellation. Oh, so sad!
I CAN NOT BELIEVE THEY CANCELED THE QUAD. I watched faithfully every episode. BET definitely missed the mark on this one. Anything that’s positive for blacks, gets canceled!! I’m very disappointed!! Next they will cancel the new show, In Contempt!! I will not watch BET ever again if they don’t rethink this one and put the QUAD back on!!!!!
I’m really mad about this one. It was getting really good and boom they cancel it -_-.
Please bring it back on bet it was about black colleges isn’t that the right platform for BLACKKIDS
OH NO!!! I was looking forward to Season 3. It was great to see positive young images in higher learning and making good decisions. Our youth need to see these images to follow and imitate versus the norm productions. PLEASE BRING BACK “THE QUAD”. Our Youth Matters!!!
Perhaps OWN can pick up The Quad. I preferred last season to this one, but overall I liked the show. The Quad was the only show that I watched on BET, other than the old sitcoms or the New Edition movie.
I love the Quad. I’ve watched every episode. Please bring it back. I want to see if Cedric and his baby mamma keep the baby
Please bring back the Quad, I didn’t know the time of the show at first but I,ve caught up with the episodes and it’s agreat show and exciting please give it another chance
Keep the quad please. I always saw commercial previews and I would say “oh this show looks good” then I finally watched it and now you guys are taking it away from me
Why? I’ve gotten hooked on this show. It is filled with surprise and excitement. Please bring it back!
I look forward to seeing this show every week each episode has me wanting to see more it’s real life drama and experience that goes on college campuses. Several of these episodes were powerful especially episode “The Color Purple” I had tears . The cast are all phenomenal in there craft of acting. They all put their heart and soul into their individual parts . Please keep this show running.
I like the Quad, it take you inside real college life, it’s one of the best new shows ever, I think it should be renewed.
