This episode opens with Malik at home with a bunch of strippers  dancing around/sleep/ laying out as a plate for his sushi.  Tasha Mack comes in harping because he missed a lunch with her and Derwin about a Ford campaign.. They were both there because they have assistants and Tasha feels that Malik needs one as well. Malik begs to differ and believes that he has an assistant, some girl he’s eating sushi off of.  Tasha says that she will find him an assistant but he feels that he’s a grown ass man and can do it on his own. After interviewing a few “candidates” he picks one based on her looks and the fact that she’s bisexual.

Later that day… Malik and Javon are bowling, his assistant comes in to bring him some movies which were the wrong ones, Tasha then comes in and says that she has been trying to call him all day but the girl aka i’gnant heffa keeps transferring her to his answering service. The problem is that he doesn’t have an answering service. She says that she is calling T.T. to train her but Malik says that T.T. is dead to him even though they have been best friends since they were 2. All he knows is that T.T. took the money that he gave him for his business and never looked back. Javon interjects and sticks up for T.T. saying that he was just looking out for his own well being. Tasha decides to call T.T. anyway.

At the Davis House… Melanie is having a meeting with the Sunbeams. She tells them about the charity event  that she will be hosting the next saturday. She will be the speaker to some at risk girls about her rise to success in the medical field. *is she serious? She didn’t even complete her residency! Child please…* Melanie is being really stuck up and snooty towards the other girls.

At Malik’s estate… T.T. is showing the new assistant the filing system that he uses for the movies. Since alphabetically gave Malik a nose bleed he uses the same system that NASA uses on dyslexic chimps. (Sad movies in blue, Angry movies in red, so if they make you happy they are in yellow) as he is going through the demonstration Malik comes in making wise cracks about T.T. smelling like Chicken. T.T. ignores the comments and continues to teach the new assistant the filing system. After the continued insults T.T. tells him that he needs to quit it and that he thought that by him coming to help the new assistant that it might spark some sort of apology out of Malik. Malik laughs it off and says that T.T. needs to apologize to him instead. T.T. decides to apologize. He apologizes for being such a loyal friend, for allowing him to screw him over time and time again since they were kids, and he’s sorry fof Malik having sex with his girlfriend in a hot tub. Malik’s dumbass then tells T.T. to come on over and give him a hug as if all is forgiven. I guess he didn’t catch the sarcasm. T.T. then reaches in his pocket and pulls out a roll of money and throw it at Malik. It’s all the money he loaned him for the wing truck plus interest. T.T. is done dealing with Malik. Malik is still being an asshole and says, that he’ll use it for toilet paper as he tosses the money to his assistant to put in the bathroom so that he can wipe his ass with it later. T.T. tells Malik that he is a real life pig as he turns and walks toward the door. *Was that the last we’ll see of T.T.? I hope not*

Back to Melanie… Melanie is sitting on the couch looking at  pictures of First Lady Michelle Obama and Justice Sonia Sotamayer on her Ipad as Derwin walks in.  She is working on her speech and begins to give Derwin a taste of it then she goes off on a tangent about how Jaz wanted to speak to the girls about the success she found after being in a rap video. Melanie is really showing her true uppity colors right now. She goes on about how she can’t be a role model for anyone because she was in a music video. When she asks Derwin if Jas is all that he kinda messes himself up by saying that if you’re into the whole exotic big butt big boobs type then yeah but clearly he isn’t because he’s with Melanie. *lmao now that made me laugh!* Melanie then reminds him that he did sleep with her. he weasles his way out of the situation but telling her to keep going with her presentation.

The Saturday of the event… Tasha and Melanie return to find Jaz setting up the food since Melanie put her on refreshment instead of letting her speak to the girls. She then has a fit/mini tantrum because of the food selection. Jaz has some ranch sunflower seeds, Now and Laters, Grape drink,  and pickles. Tasha’s Ghetto ass has no problem with the selection as she reaches for a pickle. Melanie tells her to have the chef bring out a plate of salad dressing and to grab some sparkling water from above the fridge. * Melanie is being a snobby little ass if you ask me.* As jaz is reaching for the sparkling water on top of the fridge Derwin walks into the kitchen. She asks him to hold the step ladder steady so that she doesn’t fall, he nervously agrees. As he’s holding the step ladder her butt is right in his face, Melanie walks in and sees this and when Derwin notices her he almost make Jaz fall as he tries to escape!

At Malik’s pool… Malik and Javon are enjoying the company of some ladies, well Javon is. Malik is still upset about what happened with T.T.  As he gets up to go inside he realizes that he watch is missing and frisks Javon and his little son *yes his little son is at the pool with them and a bunch of half naked women.* His assistant comes back and didn’t or couldn’t do half of the things that he asked her to do. He then says that he’s not sure whether it’s the new house or the new contract but he feels like he can’t trust anyone anymore and that he’s surrounded by takers. She then produces the watch  that he was missing and says that she found it in the elevator. he kicks her out as well.

At the charity event… Melanie is going through her slide show/presentation for the girls. She opens the floor up for questions from the girls. They begin to ask how much some of the things that she has costs and she says that she’s not sure but if they work hard they can one day afford stuff like that of their own. One young lady comes back at her and says that she didn’t work hard she just married a football player. Jaz is setting up the food for the girls when one of them recognizes her from a Neyo video that she did. She tells them that she was just acting and Melanie laughs it off saying that she would hardly call what she was doing acting. *Jaz is in the background looking like she could knock Melanie out!* The girls begin asking Jaz more questions instead of Melanie and it is clear that she is not happy about it. Melanie asks them if they want to know anything else about being a doctor but all they want to know is how is she a real doctor if she doesn’t even practice? Before she can answer one of the girls discovers the Ranch sunflower seeds and they all leave Melanie and gravitate towards the food. After the event the girls are lined up to get an autograph from Jaz and Melanie is pissed. She calls Jaz over to the side and asks her what the hell she’s doing. She tells her that she is leading the girls down the wrong path and how she has the girls thinking it is okay to sleep with everyone and shake their ass in music videos. Jaz asks if this is about Derwin which Melanie denies and says that she is making these girls think that objectifying themselves is the right path to go on. Jaz is quick witted as she compares the two paths. Melanie married a ball player, she married a ball player, she’s a sunbeam and Melanie is a sunbeam, only she’s sitting at the autograph table unlike Melanie. Jaz then calls her a fake insecure doctor that loves breaking down other women to build herself up. *Wow, Melanie needs to pick up her face!!* Tasha then comes behind Jaz and reads Melanie as well about how she treated Jaz and how her past is just, if not more, shady as Jaz’s.

At Malik’s house… Malik is in his strip club room getting drunk as one of the strippers dances on the stage for him. After taking another swig from his bottle he calls T.T. and tries to leave a message for him about him not refilling his prescriptions and how he should be thanking him for sleeping with his girlfriend but fails to do it correctly. When he tries again he gets a busy signal so he grabs his coat and keys and heads out to find T.T. *this cannot end well*

After the charity event… Melanie is having a debriefing after the event with the other sunbeams. she thinks that the event was a success. As they plan for the next event, spicing up their relationships, she asks for volunteers. When no one does she asks Jaz to show them some of her video moves as a way to kind of smooth things over with her.

In the car… Malik is driving and listening to some slow music when he gets pulled over by a cop. Malik hops out of the car and begins walking toward the cop who draws his gun when he sees this. He tells the officer that he is just looking for T.T.’s wing truck and to calm his ass down. The cop tells him that the truck is down by the fireworks show and tells him to get back in the car. He recognizes that Malik is drunk and has his do a breathalyser test. Malik says that he is  Malik El Debarge Wright and he’s not doing a breathalyser test. he begins to walk away because he doesn’t know what a breathalyser is and thinks its some kind of kinky sex thing. As the officer follows and grabs him he pushes the officer back so the office uses his taser gun on him dropping him to the ground and arresting him. The episode ends with pictures of Malik’s mugshot.

This episode picks up with Tasha at her car one night putting some tings in her trunk. Out of the blue Kelly shows up. As Tasha franticly tries to unlock her door Kelly quickly closes in.  with no other choice, Tasha pepper sprays Kelly but this has no effect as Kelly punches Tasha in the face knocking her out! Before she can hit the ground Tasha wakes up as she was only dreaming.  She decides to call Kelly and have a sit down with her. She apologizes for her behavior and blames it on a case of ‘ a black woman hating on a white woman’. *Her words, definitely not mine! She tries to sound all sincere but if this is the Tasha Mack that we all know she has a trick up her sleeve.* Kelly accepts her apology saying that ‘your people are very emotional but I accept your apology anyway.” They are only playing nice for the cameras but they really did make up.

At the Davis house… After Tasha and Kelly patch things up they head over to see Melanie during her ‘crisis’.  She doesn’t want the camera crew there but they came anyway.  Since they don’t have enough film on Kelly for the week they decide to all take their shirts off so that the camera can’t film them. *really? Really?* anyway she Melanie tells them that the test was wrong and that DJ really is Derwin’s baby. She looks to Kelly for answers for some odd reason.  They give her some bogus advice and then make fun of her.

After practice… Derwin and Malik are leaving the facility and are talking about the situation with him and the baby. Of course Malik has a few jokes . Jason sees them as he is leaving with his things at the same time. He tries to avoid them but there is no way so he just walks faster hoping that they don’t notice him. he stops and talks to them and lets them know that the Sabres have officially cut him. While Jason seems shocked both Malik and Derwin already knew and begin squabbling over what the day on the email about him getting cut said. Jason says that he’ll be okay because he was given a hosting spot on a sports talk show.

At the studio… Jason is doing his show as co host and has nothing but bad things to say about the organization. he is so mad at the organization that he starts to tell everything about them. Like Derwin’s tendency to favor a certain side because of a previous injury. They begin to prod him for more information so he begins to talk about Malik. Chris Webber, his co host tries to stop it but the other co host is eating it up and encourages him to spill more.

Back at the Davis house… Derwin arrives home from practice to find Melanie fixing the hole in the wall that he smashed in when finding out that the baby wasn’t his.  She then tells him that they need to talk.  he interrupts her and apologizes for taking his anger out on her and tells her that he is angry at Janay and not her. Melanie tries to cover for her because she knows the truth but just won’t tell him. He then tells Melanie that she just doesn’t get it because its not in her nature to be lying and deceiving.  *If only he knew* As they hug guess who knocks at the door with a large brown envelope? Yep, Janay!  Derwin goes to the door to answer it but before he can get there Melanie blurts out that she was too afraid to tell you that the test was wrong and that DJ is his son! Derwin has this puzzled look on his face and then goes over to the hole that she just patched up and punches it again.  He then opens the door for Janay and tells her that they need to talk because it’s been an mistake. She gives him the DNA results and says that she will see him in court for visitation and she wants to put him on child support. *way to go Melanie* Melanie keep saying how she wants to fix things ut Derwin tells her that she can’t because she’s the problem as he walks away.

Back at the studio… Jason is on the phone making a date and being just extra whoreish. Malik walks up and throws a handful of condoms at him. Seems that ever since Jason’s comments on air about how he’s having all this sex strangers on the street have been throwing them at him. Jason says that its just entertainment. They then realize that  all of this is because the Sabres let him go. Just Malik is actually give him a compliment and sort of a pep talk about the good years he put in playing ball and the money and accolades that he received Derwin comes up to tell them about his situation with Melanie, the DNA test and Janay. He says that they are over so the first thing Jason advises him to do is contact his divorce lawyer and financial advisor. Malik tells him not to listen to Jason and that he should have had DJ tested a long time ago. * I actually agree with Malik on this one. While I am not a fan of Melanie and I think that what she did is horrible, he should have had the boy tested a long time ago, like when he was born to prove to his wife that the baby was either his or not his.* Now he doesn’t know what to do.

At a club… The show is throwing a welcome party for Jason and Chris Webber is hosting.  The two are on stage and Jason decides to premiere a remix of his infamous “Dip and Pitts” dance. Chris tries to stop him but he does it anyway only embarrassing himself. After a while he realizes that he is  not getting the reaction that he wants and walks off the stage embarrassed.

At the Davis house… As Derwin is returning Melanie is leaving to go stay with Kelly for a few days because she knows that she really messed up and wants to give him some space.  Derwin stops her and says that he has been praying asking God for some answers on their marriage and the situation all day and has come to the conclusion that in order for it o work between them then she has to start doing some things his way.  He then tells her that he doesn’t want to hear another word from her about DJ or Janay and that she has to go to church every Sunday.  She then asks if they will be okay, his response is that all he can tell her is that he is here right now, as he grabs her bag and walk up stairs to end this week’s episode.

As many of you know almost two years ago the show was cancelled and all of the die hard fans like myself were left hanging.  Well, BET came to the rescue by first picking up the show for syndication and showing reruns and then negotiating a deal to start producing new shows. This is great right? Well sort of. You see BET has a long history of messing things up and from the way that they cut and re edited the series for syndication I did not have my hopes up for them to be able to pull this off. To my surprise they actually did pull it off and put on a great show!

Two Years Later…  The show opens with Derwin pulling up in a chauffeured Maybach to an Essence photo shoot.  Derwin is now the face of Nike and the multi million dollar Boom campaign. The kid is doing big things and has Tasha Mack for a manager and we all know that Tasha does not play as she gives it to the stylist on the set to make sure that she does a good job for her client.  Jason is on TV talking about his disdain for the Sabres organization by comparing them to a plantation, the GM is the overseers and the football field is the cotton fields.  Malik is in the bathroom getting nasty with some young lady ( more on her to come).  Kelly is looking busted as she is walking around town shooting a reality show. To officially start the show Tasha says her famous line ” Game on, bitches!”

At the Essence photo shoot… As Tasha is looking at the photos of Derwin and Melanie she remarks to one of the assistants that “I don’t know about you but that looks like a couple that I’d wanna have sex with” really Tasha Mack really? Janay has come to drop of DJ for the weekend.  The kid is so cute!  Melanie seems to be making the best of the situation as she comes in and speaks to Janay.  They seem cordial as Janay comments on Melanie’s bag and how nice it is. As Derwin and Janay go to the car to get his bag Tasha comes over to put the seed of doubt in Melanie’s head.  She tells her that the baby is too light and that his hair to too straight to be Derwin’s baby.  “Baby mama 0 Wifey 1″.

Meeting with management…  Malik is meeting with the new majority owner of the Sabres.  He throws a number of shots at him for not getting him a good offensive line which caused him to get sacked a lot.  When the new majortiy owner, Roger, comes back by calling him a crybaby he gets upset and thinks that he takes his injuries to be a joke.  Roger assures Malik that he does not joke about money and that he wants to set the team up to win so he stacked the defense and there wasn’t enough cash left for a better offensive line. Malik then gets upset and says that there was enough room for Derwin’s big contract though.  Roger believes that Derwin is the new face of the franchise and gave him the franchise tag.  Before they can get into things any deeper Roger’s wife (the chick that Malik was boning in the bathroom earlier) comes to the table and wisks him away so that they can hop on their G5 and fly up the coast to Hearst castle that he’s rented out for the weekend to celebrate their anniversary.

At the Davis House… Derwin is getting the bath ready for DJ and Melanie insists on helping so that he won’t be late for the Nike Boom event. More on this to come

Benched… Jason is making is premiere on a show called Benched: Sports Talk with Chris Webber and things start off kind of shaky.  Jason takes offense to the intro of ‘future hall of fame hopeful’.  apparently he feels he’s more of a shoe in than a hopeful.  He tells Chris that he is holding out from training camp until he gets the contract and respect that he deserves.  There is a segment in the show called ‘fan of the day’ and guess who it is? Kelly. Yep Kelly is the fan of the day and she calls in the plug her reality show called ‘Ex ballers wives’.  She looks a hot mess and I hope her show fails!

Back to the bath… Melanie is putting on a puppet show for DJ with his wash mitts. During the bath she decides to swab DJ’s mouth and send it down to the lab for testing. The old Melanie that I grew to hate is back.

At the Mack house… Tasha comes home and keeps constantly calling out for her ‘baby’. After a few calls out walks a young guy (BET’s 106 & Park host Terrence J) in nothing but a towel.  They embrace and begin to passionately kiss. She then gets mad because he took shower. I guess she finds stench sexy. She tells him that she wants him to go work out again to get that stench back but instead he opens his towel and they… Well you know the rest.  Moving on!

Back at the Davis house…  Later that day Tasha comes by to see Melanie and show her the shots from the photo shoot. Melanie tells her what she has done. Melanie tries to justify what she did to herself.  Tasha gives her a piece of her mind.  She tells her that when she met Derwin in college and saw that he had a chance to go pro she latched on to him, then almost lost it when he cheated on her and had a baby with Janay but she still got him back.  When she did get him back his career was almost over so she called up Tasha Mack to help resurrect it because she didn’t give up Johns Hopkins and get disowned by her parents for nothing to come of it.  Tasha did just that and resurrected Derwin’s career, now he’s the face of the Nike Boom campaign and their on the cover of Essence.  The only problem is that one little spec on the corner of the picture. Janay and DJ. As she is about to go in further the phone rings. It is the result of the DNA test. Tasha tells her to ignore the spec, it’s still a pretty picture.

Cluck Truck… T.T. is no longer working for Malik (though somebody should tell Malik) and has his own business now.  He owns the Cluck Truck. a mobile restaurant serving wings.  Malik and the owner’s wife pull up to a construction site where the truck is located for the day to get some wings and see T.T. about updating the contacts in his phone and getting his stuff out of storage.  T.T. has quit like 6 times already and he still has him doing his odds and ends.  When T.T. tells him its not a good idea to be out in the open with the owner’s wife he tells him that it is a part of his plan.  T.T. warns him that if he gets caught then his career is over, but Malik believes that the rules don’t apply to him and leaves. Without paying of course.

Later on in the day… Melanie and Tasha are out walking around. Melanie is on the phone with Kelly trying to get some advice on what she should do now that she has the results. Why she’s asking Kelly of all people for advise I have no idea. And guess what folks? After all this time, the baby is NOT Derwin’s according to the (preliminary) DNA testing.  Kelly was recording the conversation for her stupid reality show as they talked. When Melanie asks her if she is taping the convo she tells the crew to stop.  Tasha then chimes in about how Kelly can’t be trusted which starts a argument between Kelly and Tasha as Tasha snatches the phone from Melanie and yells at Kelly.  Kelly blames Tasha for breaking up their marriage by introducing her to that black woman two years ago.  Kelly tells her to meet her at market and 4th street so she can beat her up again then hangs up the phone.  Of course Tasha is not going anywhere near Kelly for fear of getting killed.  They get back on topic and she tells Melanie that she needs to tell Derwin the truth.

Back at the Davis Household… Derwin comes in from training camp to find Melanie in the kitchen pouring a glass of wine.  They exchange pleasantries and move to the couch.  When Derwin asks her how her day was she tells him that she swabbed DJ and had it sent to the lab for a paternity test.  Derwin is extremely pissed and tells her that he doesn’t care and doesn’t want to know the results. As far as he’s concerned DJ is his son.  As he walks away to go upstairs, Melanie then says that he should probably know that DJ is not his. She tells him that they needed to know the truth and that Janay just wants what they have. Derwin turns around slowly, looks at Melanie  and then takes out his anger by punching a hole through the wall before walking away.

In a club bathroom… Malik and the owner’s wife are getting it in on the sink with the door locked.  management comes and bangs on the door for them to unlock it.  these fools end up breaking the sink.  Eventually management comes in. Malik calls T.T. to come and work things out.  T.T. reasons with the club manager not to press charges and to let their insurance guy work some magic and for him to circulate the rumor of Malik getting freaky and breaking the sink so that his club could be even more famous.  The manger agrees with T.T. and doesn’t press charges. T.T. asks him why he’s acting so crazy with this girl but Malik tells him that it’s just casual.  Malik gets mad at T.T.’s questioning and tells him to clean up the watery mess. When T.T. stands up to him and tells him to stop bossing him around because he’s not his assistant anymore, Malik reminds him that he gave him the money to start that Cluck Truck business.

At the park… Kelly is dropping off Brittany to Jason and he tells her to stop the stupid reality show that she has going on.  She refuses claiming that she is free and that she’s won.

At Tasha’s House… Dante (Terrence J) walks in with some good news. He’s going to be working Malik’s party as well so they can go together as a couple.  Tasha quickly puts the brakes on that.  She feels that she’s not ready for that and that they should just keep things the way they are for now.

On the porch… Derwin is talking to DJ as they wait on Jenay to come. He is pointing out all the features that they have in common.  He then goes on to tell him to watch out for women so that he doesn’t fall for the same ‘banana in the tailpipe’ trick that he fell for. Janay then walks up and apologizes for having him waiting and being late.  She was at a shoe sale.  he comments on her purse and says it looks familiar. She tells him it’s the same as the one Melanie has but in a different color ( the same bag from the Essence photo shoot that she was admiring, and remember Melanie saying how she wants what they have, even down to the bag). As she is going on about how the bag looks better on her Derwin interrupts her and asks if DJ is his. Janay has a look of shock and awe written all over her face.

At the hospital… Kelly and her camera crew are coming out as Melanie is about to go in.  Kelly tells her that she went in to see find out what the most expensive procedure is and Melanie is there to find out about the residency program since Derwin is still not talking to her. Kelly tells her that she should fight for her marriage and try to work it out.

At Malik’s video game party…  Malik is going on and on about how great he is when Jason asks him if he’s not afraid of the cover curse.  Malik is oblivious to this so Jason rattles off 5-6 examples of players that have been affected by the curse.  He even goes on to say that he turned it down 5 years in a row because of it.  Malik calls him jealous and angrily gets up to leave, as he is walking by the bar he overhears Tasha saying that even Derwin turned it down because of the curse. Dante has his assistants working the room and making sure that everything is taken care of when Tasha walks up to speak to him. Sheree (from Real Housewives of Atlanta) walks up to him, when he asks how she is she calls him a pig. then another older woman walks up and asks when Dante is going to buy her a drink. Tasha confronts him on the pattern that begins to form.  She doesn’t want to be a part of his freaky old lady fetish or stable full of Golden Girls.  He explains to her that it is not like that before she walks away.  Malik finds T.T. and his girlfriend talking at the bar and tells him to take him home because the party is wack and he’s too drunk to drive. T.T. refuses because he’s not his assistant anymore and he needs to be outside with his wing truck when the party ends to make some money.  His girlfriend, Allison, suggests that she take him home because she has to leave anyway to do some work on her dissertation.

At the Davis House… Melanie is sitting at the table filling out residency paperwork but rips it up just before Derwin comes in the door.  When she hears the chime of the door alarm she prepares herself for another round of the silent treatment only to find that Derwin’s eyes are red from all the crying that he has been doing.  He asks her once again if the baby is his and she says no.  They then embrace as he begins to cry.

At the Mack House… Tasha is home with her feet kicked up watching TV when Dante walks in. He begins to question her on why she is acting the way she is when she was the one that wanted to keep it casual when he wanted to get serious.  She goes on to tell him that she thought she was special. She thought that he was running around with a bunch of young girls and she was the only older woman that he was dating. He tells her that she just needs to forget about his age and admit that she has feelings for him.  She finally does admit it and he tells her that she’s the one he connects with and that she’s the one in his heart.  As he gets up to leave they embrace and things seems to have worked themselves out.

At a hotel/spa… Kelly is still shooting for her God awful reality show, this time she has 3 other fake friends to tag along.  She’s recapping what she told Jason at the park when she was dropping Brittany off when the producer notices Jason coming in.  Jason walks in suited up with a date on his arm and asks Kelly’s ‘friends’ if they want to join him and his date in their private cabana for some champagne and manicures.  Of course they all go leaving Kelly at the table looking like a fool.  She tells Jason that it’s immature and desperate of him to try and steal her show.  He then reminds her that he IS the show.  Even the camera crew leaves her to join Jason in the private cabana.

At Malik’s estate… T.T. comes by to see Malik the next day after the party. As he’s walking through the house looking for Malik he finds him in the Jacuzzi with the owner’s wife again. As he is about to leave and apologizes for interrupting, his girlfriend Allison pops up from under the water only to see T.T. and sink back under again. T.T. is in shock and all Malik has to say is ‘well I told you to take me home didn’t I’. Damn Homie!! That is so foul on Malik and Allison’s part!

At The Davis’… During breakfast Melanie gets a call from her friend down at the testing clinic. Seems there’s been some sort of mix up or mistake and DJ is actually Derwin’s baby! BOOM!!! Apparently she had been running on no sleep and screwed up so she ran it a few times and each time it came back positive for Derwin’s baby. As she hangs up Derwin asks who is was and she says nobody just some Sunbeam stuff. Derwin walks away leaving a shocked Melanie alone in the kitchen bringing the scene and the show to an end for the week.

This new season has started out surprisingly well. I must say that BET has done a good job of keeping things going and picking up almost right where we left off. I’m not feeing Kelly at all and me and Med School aka Melanie have never seen eye to eye. At first I thought was was this bourgeois chick that got on my nerves and then as the seasons went on she seemed to become desperate and clingy. Not a good look. By the end of last season she seemed to be bitter and very vindictive. I guess she’s picking up right where she left off in the bitter and vindictive department.  Overall this season looks promising from as much as you can get from the first episode. I’m glad T.T. is doing his own thing now too.

Okay so I just got word that apparently our favorite show ‘The Game’ is coming back! This time on BET. *Kind of a fail* I know what you’re thinking, yeah this has been out there for the longest but this time I think *keyword think* that its official. The only thing they are waiting on is for the cast to sign contracts.
You guys know I don’t do the gossip so if this is wrong then just excuse this one time lapse in judgment okay? Okay. I’m still on the fence about whether or not to do recaps if or when it does or doesn’t return. I’m not really a fan on BET so I can’t see myself tuning in every week faithfully in order to keep up. I mean I saw a few episodes and they censored so much of it that if I hadn’t seen it I would have been extra lost! I hope they don’t change the format but I have a feeling it won’t be the same as before.
Anyway, you guys let me know if you think I should continue to do the recaps if it comes back on the air because I do them for you guys not me. I’ve already seen the episode, I like to keep you guys up to speed. If I hear any further developments I’ll post them.

I didn’t want to be like everyone else and jump the gun. Even though I already knew the outcome, I wanted to wait on the official statement from Mara Brock Akil or the CWTV network but got it from Tia Mowry aka Med School via Twitter. Looks as if they are not going to renew the show for another season. If you’ve been following the show then you can’t be too surprised by this. The show has been on a steady decline. I’m not sure if it was the writers or the stories were just coming to a head but you can’t say you didn’t see this coming. It had it’s moments toward the end though.

I’m hurt that the show is cancelled, not because of the obvious reasons. I mean I would love to see more of Stacy Dash, but the reason I’m hurt is because now the only black shows we have to look at are the VH1 reality shows and the horrible Tyler Perry foolishness “House of Payne” and  “Meet The Browns”. None of these shows are on network television so that means that without ‘The Game’ and ‘Everybody Hates Chris’ there aren’t any black sitcoms, or dramas for that matter, left on network television. I.E. NBC, CBS, ABC,CWTV and FOX. I really hope TVONE picks it up Since BET didn’t pick it up. Which actually may not have been a bad thing, if you think about it.

I hate to see the show go but like the saying goes, all good things must one day come to an end…

The finale is a hour long and is a preparation as to what would come if the show is renewed for a fourth season and turned into a hour long dramedy.

The finale opens with Malik’s sister Pucci in the studio recording some music. they then cut to med school and Derwin chilling on the couch when he gets a call from Janay and rushes off to the hospital. Kelly is broken up as she reads over the divorce papers with Tasha as she hands her a pen and asks if she’s ready. *Of course there is alcohol involved*. Jason and Camille are laughing and celebrating being together as he pours two glasses of champagne. *I know that sounded/read really mix match, but it was a montage of sorts. Just a quick intro of what everyone was up to. They will break them all down later.*

Derwin returns from the hospital. Apparently it was just a false alarm. Med school begins talking about how the baby is coming and that she wants to get married the next weekend. Since she can’t be the first to have his baby she wants to be the first to be his wife. *she is so jealous! uggh!* She wants to be the first at something! so he says she was his first love, but that’s not good enough for her. Of course, he caves and agrees to get married the next weekend.

Malik takes Pucci and Tee Tee with him to an ‘industry party’ * looks like it’s just a studio at someone’s house to me, but hey what do I know.* She is so nervous she burst out singing the national anthem! * yes, ‘ Oh say can you see’!* Even Tee Tee is acting a fool by free styling for some ladies about being a premature baby. Malik introduces his kid sister to the host/producer Ronny * cameo by Souljah Boy as Ray Ray, Ronny’s assistant aka Ronny’s Tee Tee.* They trade a few jabs about how much money each has and who has the most. They continue to compete about the little things like ‘panty dropping’ times… * I know random.* Anyway, she sings for said producer and he seems interested in both her and her voice.

Derwin flies to Connecticut to meet with Med school’s parents to get her father’s official blessing before they get married. Dr. Barnett slams the door in his face. After knocking again, he lets Derwin in to hear what he has to say. As he’s thanking him for allowing Med school to make her won decisions about them getting back together. He then goes on to explain the situation about him being injured, the baby drama etc. There is this look of shock and awe on Dr. Barnett’s face as he listens. As soon as he says that he loves her and will be the best husband he can be to her, Melanie’s mom comes in and assumes the baby talk is about Melanie. She slaps him 3 times before Dr. Barnett kicks him out! *Okay that was so uncalled for! The first time I understand, but the 2nd and 3rd was overkill*. Apparently they had no earthly idea that they were even back together let alone close enough to be about to get married. * Wow, way to go Med school. Now you see why I don’t like her!*

Jason and Malik are at Malik’s spot auditioning strippers as they try to plan a bachelor party within a week. When Jason asks about Pucci, Tee Tee says that she left with his Ferrari. When he calls her she answers but is drunk as a skunk over at Ronny the producer’s place. *She’s only 19* not only is she drunk, but she has been drugged. Malik arrives just in time as she’s surrounded by some dudes and singing about passing around her panties. Malik grabs her and as they are about to leave Ronny steps up to stop it. Suddenly he finds himself surrounded and outnumbered. To lighten things up, Tee Tee decides to do some magic tricks *magic? Magic? you can’t be serious. I mean no dis to people who are into that, but they are making Tee Tee cornier and cornier by the episode. I like the wise cracking Tee Tee from the seasons past*. Just as Malik is about to knock Ronny out Tasha shows up to talk some sense into him. * he’s in talks of a $100 million contract*. Malik realizes it wouldn’t be a good idea and leaves to let Tasha and Pookie from Richmond handle things. As she grabs Pucci to take her away, Ronnie says he needs to get paid for the 2 hrs he spent making the beat and recording a song with her. When Tasha goes to hand him some cash he refuses it and tells her to either drop her panties or hit the door. This is where Pookie from Richmond (Rockmond Dunbar) steps in. Pookie reads him by giving out ole boy’s full name, graduation class (Princeton ’02), parents’ names and address and says they can do this Tasha’s way or Pookie’s way. * I vote for Pookie’s way just so I can see what happens!* Ronny tells his bodyguard to get him but he punks out because apparently Pookie has a rep for knocking mofo’s out or something. They all leave peacefully as Ronny goes into another room.

Derwin arrives back at the apartment as Med school is filling out place cards. She notices his face and asks what happened. He tells her what happened, and the first thing she wants to know is why he went without telling her. She goes to help him and he pushes her away, wondering why she never told them about them getting back together. She goes into this whole spill about them breaking up and getting back together. *They first broke up because he slept with  Drew Sidora, then they got back together because he was just so cute, then he got another woman pregnant while she was dating Jerome who her parents would have loved (according to her) but then Derwin beat him up in the bathroom so she took him back but they broke up again while she was dating a doctor (that again, she thinks they would have loved) and now they want to get married. That was her explanation. Did you notice how she said they broke up while she was dating Jerome and while she was ‘dating’ the doctor? She wasn’t even dating the doctor and SHE was the one that did the whole ‘checking in’ thing with both Derwin and the Doctor so how is this Derwin’s fault? & they weren’t even together when Janay got pregnant. She was with Jerome and he was with Janay. They had broken up. But I digress.* 
As he walks off she starts crying *such a drama queen!* as she goes to finish the place cards. Derwin comes from the back after pouting to help her with the place cards. She tries to smooth things over by saying that she doesn’t care if they don’t accept him, then goes over and calls her parents to tell them that she really wants them to be at the wedding, but according to her tone they object as she says that there will be a wedding with or without them. When Derwin asks if she’s okay she gleefully jumps on him exclaiming that they are getting married! * Now this is stupid, we all know how much of a drama queen and snob med school is, and how long she holds grudges. How did she get over her parents disappointment within 5 seconds, but can’t get over Drew Sidora 2 seasons later? I’m just saying…*

Malik and Jason throw Derwin a big bachelor party only for it to be interrupted by two female cops. *peep this, no dis to women officers but they would not send two females officers to pick him up on assault charges. And he’s a pro athlete. pssft. pass*. Everyone thinks it’s part of the show until one of the female officers sprays mace in Malik’s eyes while the other female officer cuffs Jason and carries him off.

Over at Tasha’s house the girls are helping med school set up for the wedding and she’s being a real snob about everything! Of course, Kelly wants to drink! Med school is tripping! As Tasha goes to get a refreshing bottle of wine, Pucci comes downstairs dressed to go out. When med school tries to get on her for not helping when she called, she snaps right back at her! Tasha tells her to help since she will be staying with her for the summer * How did this happen? I mean Pucci’s mother can’t stand Tasha but she’ll allow her daughter to stay with her for a whole summer?* Med school then has the nerve to tell Tasha that Pucci needs to learn responsibility and to make her sing in their wedding. as they joke about her being a personal jukebox, The lush Kelly goes one step too far and says they should drop a quarter in her ass. I guess this set Pucci off as she says that it was funny but it’s funnier seeing her ex being arrested on TV. * who got the last laugh now!!* 
As they all look up at the TV Kelly frantically runs over to the phone to call Jason to see if it’s really him. Once they realize it is him, she rushes off to the precinct. Selfish med school tells her to pick up some ribbon while she’s out. She even goes as far as to call her to see which way she’s going. Tasha then sets her in her place by telling her that she’s being selfish and that no matter when they get married she’ll always be his first wife. She is just trying to keep the spotlight on her at all times. Med school actually agrees, saying that she wants the spotlight and her wedding. *she is worst than Bridezilla right now*

Kelly and Jason’s lawyer arrive at the jail. *they make everyone else leave because they are ‘VIP’. What? where they do that at?* She says that it’s all her fault and that she should have listened and never dated him in the first place. Then she goes into this big spill about him getting raped and how she’s scared for him as she cries * I hate when she cries, she’s the worst at it*. He tells her to be strong for Brit and that he needs her. then they do the cliche ‘hand on the glass thing’, His lawyer has a plan, but he has to stay in jail for the weekend because the judge wants to make an example out of him.

At Tasha’s house, Pucci is practicing her song for the wedding, but complains about the wind being too much for her to sing in. Tasha tells her that Beyonce’ would sing in a snow storm, so she begins singing. Malik thinks that maybe Tasha should be Pucci’s manager because she listens to her and has a way with people.
later inside the house, Med school is getting all clowned up for the wedding while Kelly tells them that she thinks that her and Jason are getting back together when he gets out of jail. * okay side note. her bridesmaids are wearing the exact same dress as med school. only they have on all black.* Tasha is relieved to hear this as she tells Kelly that she was the one that hooked Camille and Jason up. * Uht oh!!**Funny she’s knocked out cold, but her hand conveniently falls so that is lands right across her chest as not to show any cleavage. hmmm. And she does all that talking bad about being tough and knocking people out only to 1. squeal for help when Kelly first jumps on her and 2. Get caught slipping and knocked out cold.* Kelly snaps and jumps on Tasha! Med school pulls Kelly off Tasha and breaks them up. As med school goes back to clown school to finish getting her make up done Kelly Pacman’s (knocks out) Tasha with a straight right to the nose. Her limp body falls on the couch and rolls onto the floor. Kelly yells “Ta Dow bitch!” over Tasha laid out on the floor, right before she leaves.

As Derwin is coming in, Malik and Marta get Tasha up and she tells them to get her out of there because she doesn’t want anybody to see her like that. He goes over to the bathroom where drama queen aka bridezilla aka med school is locked into. She says she wants to go home and the wedding is off. She starts crying and complaining about all the tings that went wrong. She says they should get married later, like in a year or two but Derwin isn’t having it. He says the day is about them not everyone else. He talks her into coming out and making it work.
As she walks down the aisle, alone, Derwin stops her because her parents have showed up. her mom says that no matter what happens between them she’s still their daughter and they couldn’t miss her wedding day *then slyly throws in that they couldn’t miss this one or the next one. Ha!! Moms is slick with it!* They reconcile and her dad re-walks her down the aisle.
As they are standing at the alter, Derwin’s phone begins to ring *Surprise surprise!!! Like we didn’t see this coming! and he has it on ring. You’re getting married, at least put it on vibrate, geesh!!* Guess who it is. Nah go ahead and guess… Yep, it’s Janay! and she is in labor for real for real this time! He first tells her to hold it in for like 10 minutes and then he’ll be on the way *hold it in? Boy she is not having a bowel movement, she having a baby!!* Med school tells him to go and that it’s okay. He tells her he loves her before dashing off to the hospital leaving her at the alter.
Later that night, as Tasha is sitting looking at the stars, Rick Fox comes and sits next to her. *he’s back!!* He says he heard it was going to be a wedding at her house, and thought to himself, not without him. they share a warm embrace.
Jason is at his hearing and is released on his own recognizance. Kelly is there to support him thinking that they are getting back together, only for him to see Camille and go to her as they leave the courtroom hand in hand. *hunh? the timeline is jacked up! more on that later* Kelly realizes that Jason has moved on as she fights back the tears.
At the hospital Med school is asleep in the lobby. Derwin comes over to softly awaken her to go see the baby. They named the baby Derwin “DJ’ Davis Jr. He tells Med school how much he loves her in a voice over as they show them getting married in the hospital chapel. * so yes, they finally got married!* Thus ending this season and possibly the series.

Okay let’s breakdown what happened. This episode was a glimpse of what is to come if the show is picked up for a 4th season. There was no laugh track and the show seemed to build as it went on. I miss the laugh track, but I actually like the build up. I did have some issues with some other things though.

Why is med school so selfish! It’s not always about you okay? Okay. She’s so jealous of an unborn child that she pushes up a wedding by 2 years just so that she can have the lime light on her. That’s why it backfired and Janay went into labor while they were on the alter. This can only spell disaster. She will forever be 2nd to this child. Especially since they got married on the same day that he was born! She really showed her true colors on this one. I was never a big fan of her to start but I’m really done with her now.

Why is med school’s mom so catty? What was the point of her slamming him 3 times? I just didn’t get it. I understood the first time but like I said the 2 other times were definitely overkill.

They have turned Tee Tee from the lovable, funny quick-witted sidekick into some kind of rude, cornball. magic tricks? Magic tricks? Come on, you writers could have done way better than that!
Malik is in talks of a $100 million dollar deal? Wow! I mean the first season they stunk, the second season they win it all and this season they couldn’t even make it into the wild card game. So that 1 out of 3 average is enough to leverage $100 million contract? Whatever. But I guess with Jason retiring and Derwin’s injury, they have more money to burn.
What is up with Pucci (Malik’s sister) being so .. err.. promiscuous? They just ruined her for me! She started off so sweet and innocent. And on top of her being a lush and trick she has an attitude to boot. Chick, you’re not even in the industry yet so chill on that Diva stuff okay? Okay. I was impressed with Pookie from Richmond but how much of a thug could you be with a Mister Roger’s sweater on? Who is Pookie from Richmond anyway and where does he fit in the storyline? it’s like he just showed up. I don’t remember him ever being mentioned before.How is he that well known from the other side of the country? He must be a real O.G. Bobby Johnson type (© South Central) type dude. If anybody has any info on this character (not the actor) fill me in because I’m confused about his whereabouts.
Tasha got straight punked! All that talk about how tough she is and gets beat up AND knocked out by Kelly, who she is always saying she could beat up. It was funny and sad at the same time.

I’m glad Jason is moving on. Kelly admitted to being a gold digger, now she loves him only because she can’t have him. I felt a little bad for her at the end when she thought they were going to get back together and they didn’t, but I already knew they he was going to go back to Camille. When did Jason get out of jail? The wedding was Saturday right? The baby was probably born early Sunday morning, but Jason got out of jail before the baby was born. His lawyer said he would have to be in all weekend and couldn’t see the judge until Monday. I’m going to need the writers to pay closer attention to what they wrote in earlier scenes.

All in all the show felt like a series finale to me. Seems everyone has some closure. there was no cliff hangers like in the previous seasons. Not one thing to look forward to as a question mark.
Tasha and Rick Fox are going to get back together and eventually get married.
Tasha will manage Pucci’s music career as Malik helps her get a deal. even though he supposedly already has his own label.
Malik is going to sign a huge $100 million contract.
Tee Tee tells Ray Ray that he’s going to start doing his own thing. Magic. Still mad about that.
Kelly signs the divorce papers.
Jason moves on with Camille.

Everyone’s story has come to an end. Without new characters adding to the storyline I really don’t see where they can go or how they can build it up because they have basically ended everything that was holding each story together. I guess only time will tell. 

*Update- Thanks to Mahoganie and a little googling, I found out that Pookie from Richmond is the cousin that Tasha was always talking about getting to beat people up when stuff happens. Remember when she thought Rick Fox was cheating on her and she was like she was gonna put a hit out on him by calling Pookie? Well that’s Pookie.*

I spotted this over at youtube.com/thegamefanatic. so apparently this season finale will be an hour long. they’re gonna combine episodes 21 & 22. I guess this would be a glimpse of what it would be like for the show to be in a 1 hr format? Well, not really but time-wise it would.
Anyway, peep game:

This episode opens with Kelly cleaning and dancing around the house as Jason and Britany sneak in to surprise her. * Of course, she has a drink her in hand* As Britany goes upstairs Jason says that he and Camille are getting serious and he wants her to meet Britany. She says that she’s comfortable with it *even though we all know that she’s not*. 

Later on that night… Kelly and Roman are having a little food foreplay in the kitchen ala 9 1/2 weeks. Seems Roman wants to meet Britney as well. She doesn’t want to bring Roman around her and promises to introduce her when the time is right.

At the Wedding Boutique… Med school is trying on dresses with Tasha as her sidekick. She finds a beautiful dress and decides that this is the one for her. She’s debating whether or not to buy it since the wedding isn’t until next spring and it’s the first dress she tried on. The sales girl tells her that it’ll be gone by next week at that price. Tasha offers to buy it until she finds out the price is $15,000.

At Brit Brit’s game… Kelly, Jason and Camille are all there to root Britany on at her soccer game. * I won’t get all into it because it was quite boring.* As Camille was giving Brit some advice on having a winning attitude, Kelly continued to cut her off. As they try and calm down, Roman shows up out of nowhere. *Like I said. Boring* They continue to watch as Brit scores and when she does she comes over and congratulates Camille for the advice. Of course Kelly gets jealous and decides to take her out for ice cream.

Back at the Boutique… Med school is still looking at the dress that she picked out with Tasha and is trying to hide it in the back so noone else will get it but is stopped by the sales clerk. When the clerk leaves to assist another customer, she goes over to the mirror to look at the dress again.
Derwin and Malik happen to be shopping and the elevator opens right into the boutique *coincidence? I think not.* When the elevator door is about to close Malik notices Med school looking at the wedding dress. when Malik starts saying how she’s getting her hopes up by looking at a dress that he knows they can’t afford, Ding Dong decides to call her, but Malik shuts that down as the elevator closes.

Back at the Pitts’ residence… Kelly, Britany and Roman are back from getting Ice cream and Kelly isn’t too happy that she met Roman. She didn’t want him to meet her and is upset because he defied her when she said not to come to the game. He admits he has feelings for her and realizes that she is only dating him to make Jason jealous. she tells him to leave his house and her life. As they are arguing Jason overhears him calling Kelly a bitch and talking about their daughter so he beats the crap out of him and kicks him out. Britany begs Jason to stay because she’s scared.

At Derwin’s apartment…  Med school comes home to find Derwin preparing dinner. He tells her to go and get comfortable. She walks into the bedroom to find that he has bought her dream dress for her. *How can this fool afford a $15,000 dress but that lil behind engagement ring? FAIL* When he tells her that he and Malik saw her looking at it so he got it, she thanks him but says that she has to return it because it’s bad luck now. He’s seen it. *whatever chick, your luck can’t get any worse as is* She’s tripping! Now he’s gonna take it back and give her the money to go buy herself something nice. *like a bigger ring!*

Back at the Pitt’s house… Jason spent the night, just in case Roman came back. As he’s getting ready to leave she asks him to stay for breakfast. *We all know Jason is not gonna pass up a free meal.* but before they can start cooking, Camille calls and he leaves to take the call. Ending another episode.

This episode was better than the last two, but only by a smidgen. First question is, how come he can afford a $15,000 dress but bought her that tiny engagement ring ? (what up April!!) Just doesn’t make any sense.
Kelly seems so competitive! If she still has feelings for Jason than just be with him. Geesh. Why was Jason back at the house anyway? Lucky he was there, but why? Brit was with Kelly so how would he have known, he says Brit called or whatever but he must live next door to get there that fast.

That’s all that happened this week. These stories are getting more and more out of the realm of any type of reality. I used to be able to relate to the writing, but not anymore.

This episode jumps right into with Derwin waiting for Med School to come out of the hospital entrance to tell her that he & Janay are through *tear*. She plays it coi by walking off to hide her smile. He catches up to her and after she gives this lil spill about not jumping into his arms and that what they have is done he says to her “shut up and marry me*wow what a proposal* and presents her this ring with a minuscule diamond. she immediately jumps into his arms and says yes.

Malik is hosting an engagement party for the couple and while Kelly & Tasha joke about whether or not they are going to really go through with it or not Jason walks in with a date. It’s Camille. This makes Kelly feel insecure, while Tasha now has to think of a plan for her not to find out that she’s the one who hooked them up. Kelly awkwardly comes over to speak to them and tries to make small talk, only to embarrass herself. * she calls her skin ‘so dark, and lovely’. clearly she still has feelings for Jason, get on with it already*. As Camille walks away Kelly starts bragging to Jason about her boyfriend, then secretly calls Roman for him to come to the party.  Camille walks over to Tasha to thank her for introducing them but she refutes it. Tasha confides in Tee Tee what she did and he thinks of a way to help her.
In comes Javon and his date. His date is actually the girl that Jason was caught with right after he and Kelly separated, and prompted Kelly to go ahead with the divorce. *Why is Javon even on the show? ughh, these random characters…* 
Derwin and Med school finally arrive and she is feeling inadequate about the size of her ring so she heads straight to the bathroom, claiming to have a zit. Tasha and Kelly go in to see what’s going on and they see the size of the ring. Kelly rubs it in by saying Brittany has a ring like it with a bigger diamond. She starts tripping about the way Derwin proposed *which was kinda wack*,the size of the ring *which is also kind of wack* and that Malik only threw this party for himself and not them. Tasha whips her bougie behind back in shape by letting her know that he at least still wants to marry her. After the pep talk *sorta* they head out only for Tasha to close the door again because Camille was coming.
Roman *Kelly’s boyfriend* arrives, under dressed. When she sees him she loudly introduces him, bringing attention to them hoping to make Jason jealous. Tee Tee tells Tasha that she can get rid of her problem with Kelly by having her boyfriend try and take it to the next level in their relationship. That way she’ll forget about Jason.
So the whore is at the table chatting it up with everyone. *seeing as she’s slept with every man at the table she has a little history with them all.* she asks Camille how they met and before she can start the story Tasha interrupts to have Derwin propose a toast, only for that toast to be interrupted by Malik’s toast. Only for that toast to be interrupted by stupid Javon proposing to Jazmina (aka The Skank). *He was planning to do it later at the strip club, she even got a bigger ring than Med school!* So as the Skank is saying yes she also drops that she’s pregnant. All the guys at the table hold their breath as she finishes saying that it’s Javon’s baby. She tells Med school to show them her ring too when she fakes like the diamond fell out because she was too embarrassed to show it off. As everyone is searching for the diamond Camille and Jason can be seen playfully crawling around. Kelly jealously starts following them. They crawl around more with Kelly secretly in tow, soon they begin to kiss. This devastates Kelly and she runs off to cry in Malik’s closet. Roman realizes that he was only invited to make Jason jealous and starts to leave. Tasha stops him and tells him that he should try and take it to the next level with her. As they are talking they see Kelly run off crying and he goes after her.
As they are all looking for the “missing” diamond they start clowning Derwin about the size. Med school becomes hurt and embarrassed by the teasing and runs off to the elevator. Derwin follows and they sit and have a heart to heart. He tells her that she overreacts to too much and that he doesn’t care what other people think. Since the problem is that they don’t talk, they sit down in the elevator and talk things out. She asks why he chose her and he says that it’s because he loves her and knew from the minute he met her he wanted to marry her. He feels that through their faith in God and each other that they will be okay. As everyone watches on the surveillance camera, Tee Tee gets bored with it and switches the video to a different only room. This time it’s Kelly and Roman having sex. Everyone looks in horror as Jason comes over, turns it off and leaves. Only to have Tee Tee turn it back on to end this episode.

Okay now things are moving way too fast! How can you just write Janay out of the story? I mean if she wasn’t pregnant and just about to ‘drop’ then I could understand, but umm isn’t she due soon? I have a sneaky feeling something is going to happen and they won’t get married. 
This whole Jason and Kelly thing is going on too far. they have both moved on. Even though it is probably still hard on them to see each other with someone else, they must move on for their own good.
I still can’t believe Javon brought that girl and even proposed to her! That came way out of left field and served no purpose.

I’m glad Derwin and Med school finally sat down and talked it out. They do seem like a happy couple, even though I don’t like med school’s bougie behind!

This episode starts with Tasha stopping by to see Chauncey. She goes on about how she feels that her failing relationships are somehow Chauncey’s fault and that she needs to cleanse herself of his evil. As she’s going on and on about how he left her and such his wife & daughter come knocking at the door. come to find out, she acts just like Tasha. She even calls him punk ass Chauncey as well! Malik walks in & meets the family and is ecstatic to have a little sister. When he finds out that she sings, he offers to sign her to his label. *yeah remember when he was trying to do that rap thing? That’s when he started his own label.* When his little sister, Poochie *yes that’s her name* reaches into her bag to get a demo he notices her tattoo *yep in the cum catcher spot!* and realizes that he may have slept with her. * Funny that he didn’t recognize her face yet the cum catcher is what triggered it.*

At the training facility… Malik is now really thinking that he’s slept with his half-sister and seeks council from his boys Jason, Derwin, and Javon. Of course all they have is jokes. They tell him not to worry because he probably didn’t sleep with her and there’s no way that he would remember because of all the women he slept with. To prove this theory correct, Jason asks who he slept with last night and he couldn’t remember. *In his defense I’m not good with names either, but I remember faces, marks, tattoos & such well*.

Over at the Pitts residence… Med School & Kelly are talking and *you guessed it* drinking as they wait on Tasha to tell them some big news. The big news is that she thinks Punk ass Chauncey still wants her because his wife is just like her. * I think she’s dillusional* they think she’s crazy and just ‘hanging on’ to Chauncey.

Checking in at Malik’s Place… so to find out if he really slept with his half sister or not, with the help of Tee Tee he decides to go through his sex tape collection. they find the tape and he realizes that he slept with her because of the centipede tattoo.

Back at Chauncey’s hotel… Tasha shows up, unannounced. *okay I’m going to hope  the names ‘Poochie & Moochie’ are just nicknames*. She decided to show up when she heard that Malik was taking his half sister and her mom shopping. She tells him that she figures out what’s been going on all this time. He was so in love with her that he had to go and get someone just like her as a replacement. He tries to fight off her advances and tells her that he hasn’t been in love with her since he was 18 and that he doesn’t want her. She then forces herself onto him and tries to kiss him! *whoa, she is really getting thirsty! Almost as bad as med school*. As he’s fighting her off and she’s fighting to stay on him, his wife walks in! She says that she knew this would happen because Tasha still has feelings for him, calls him ‘naive ass Chauncey’ and runs out of the room, he tries to chase after her to no avail. Realizing that she’s possibly ruined his marriage he kicks Tasha out.

Meanwhile at Mailk’s Crib… Malik and his half sister * I refuse to call her Poochie anymore* come back from a day of shopping.  He sits her down to tell her that he knows that they slept together and that he taped it. She denies it so he goes to the footage, come to find out, he actually didn’t sleep with her, it was her best friend from high school. They got matching tattoos, but the girl Malik slept with has a tattoo of a butterfly on her shoulder. Little sis doesn’t. * Whew! No incest err.. Half incest going on over there!*

Over at the hotel… Chauncey is on the phone and tells his daughter that if she hears from Sheila to tell her to come back to the hotel or call him. As soon as he hangs up there’s a knock on the door. *Guess who it is?*  It’s Tasha! She comes over to tell him that she’s through dealing with him and that he can go back to Atlanta and live his life. *How can he? I thiink she’s just ruined his life/marriage* He tells her how he could have handled things better instead of running off when she got pregnant and that he knew better but just didn’t handle the situation correctly. He regrets that. As they reconsile and hug, Sheila walks in again on them! Tasha actually apologizes and tells Sheila that she should be happy that Chauncey doesn’t want her even though she is in love with him and to be grateful for what she has. ending this episode as she walks out of the hotel room.

Okay this episode was, umm… kind of boring. I mean there were a few chuckles spread out here and there but overall kind of a bore. The main focus of this episode was Tasha thinking that Chauncey somehow still wanted her because his wife is just like her. Just because he gets someone like her doesn’t mean he wants her. That could just be his type. Right? Thinking like that is the reason she can’t keep a man!
Oh yeah, I’m going to need the writers to come up with better nicknames. Tee Tee was borderline, but Moochie & Poochie? Come on now!!
Malik thinks he slept with his sister? I mean, I understand that they are trying t make it like Malik is this big playboy or whatever, but to have slept with that many women with no disease or children is astonishing! More like unbelievable to be more exact. I could see it, then again she would have said something to him at some point if they did sleep together without him having to go to the tapes. Right? 

The next episode is going to be on and cracking though! Med School and Derwin get engaged! Yes, you read it right. Engaged! he breaks it off with Janay and goes right back to Melanie and they are going to get married! I’m so dissapointed right now. I know all you team Melanie members are ecstatic right now, but remember this is close to the season or series finale so there’s no telling what type of plot twists can happen. I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that they don’t get married and he leaves her at the alter.

Here’s a video from the cast members asking for your support to keep the show on the air. check it out. Everybody wonders should they sign a petition, should they email or write the network. Honestly they probably don’t read any of it(reference Girlfriends cancellation last year) and they have filters in their emails to block out the B.S. so what we need to do is spike the traffic to the one place that they have to check on a regular basis and that is their own website. I know it may sound weird but I know that they monitor the traffic there and a jump in hits will raise their awareness. If we all can come together for just one week and show that there is something in this world that we care about and think is worth fighting for than I know we can make a difference.

Hey all my ‘The Game’ fans and friends! My sister Sane hit me up and let me know that Mara Brock Akil (creator/exec producer of ‘The Game” and also brought us ‘Girlfriends’) is thinking about changing the format of the show from a half hour comedy to a hour long Dramedy (think ‘Scrubs’ or ‘House’). I’m kind of on the fence with this. I don’t think this would work but it makes sense. I mean how many times have we said that this show needs to be an hour long because 30 minutes is not enough time. It’s more like a teaser. I hope CW accepts this move and the show comes back for a 4th season. I really don’t think it’ll save the show if they are determined to cancel it, but hey I guess it’s worth a shot. The last show on Apr 3rd was a good send off in case they don’t return. I don’t believe that was the season finale but it sure felt like it.  I hate to say this but I think that this third season is going to be their curtain call. Alas, it was fun while it lasted. Here’s the link to the Article <–Click here.

Also there is an online petition <–Click here to try and save the show. Not sure if these things really work but it’s worth a shot right?
