Preview: ‘The Game’ (Season 5)

Published: Thursday 13th Oct 2011 by Sam

Hit sitcom The Game returned in explosive fashion this year.

After being axed from The CW, the football dramedy smashed its own prior rating highs when it was revived by BET at the top of 2011.

With this year quickly drawing to an end, the network are gearing up for the hotly anticipated premiere of season 5. So as to whet apetites for the January 2012 kick off, a sizzling new teaser has been released. And from the looks of it, Melanie, Derwin, Tasha, Malik, and co are set to serve up laughs and drama a plenty. R&B diva Brandy also stars!

    Can’t wait to see it. Brandy has been really grinding lately. Definitely a good look.

  8. Kwame October 13, 2011

    Hey Bran, let’s get this money and I watched you on 90210 last too which you did a good job my love.

  9. ANNONYMOUS October 13, 2011

    Hope it goes back to its roots, football instead of clubbing and a reality show type setting. It was alright last season but they took too much away from the characters.

  10. The-Truth October 13, 2011

    Brandy looks Fab, and I’m sure her character will be exciting!!! Brandy is Slaying already, first drop dead diva, 90210, Majors and Minors, The Game, and a Film Project. When will your faves? The show looks Great

  11. BrandyNMonicaStan October 13, 2011

    Saw the sneak peek, hella excited!! All Brandy All The Time!! #POW #TEAMBROCKA

  12. Anne October 13, 2011

    I like the show but the season is TOO SHORT AND SPACED OUT. It’s not a reality show so I wish it would have FULL SITCOM SEASONS. Oh well, I guess short spaced out seasons are better than none. Looking forward to it’s return.

  13. SO FRESH October 13, 2011

    @Anne THE SEASON WILL HAVE 23 FULL EPISODES…IT’S JUST STARTING IN JANUARY INSTEAD OF OCTOBER….SO THAT MEANS THE SEASON WON’T END TIL MAY THIS TIME.

  14. Jade October 13, 2011

    I can’t wait! and last season was only short because they were testing the waters with ratings they signed on for a full season this time. 🙂

  15. 80’sBaby October 13, 2011

    Oh my goodness. I can’t wait! Tia said on Wendy Williams, that secrets will be revealed this season, like who told Derwin about Mchottie and we’ll find out whose child she aborted. Also, they’ve brought the comedy back to the show. I’m so excited!

  16. Almond Joy October 13, 2011

    Hopefully Trandy don’t f*** up the show…. she was a bore on Drop Dead Diva and totally out of her league on 90210. SMH

  17. TheMan4u October 13, 2011

  18. nerd October 13, 2011

  19. Brittany October 13, 2011

  20. BrandyNMonicaStan October 13, 2011

    @Almond Joy if you can’t say anything nice, then you shouldn’t say anything at all. Ugh! negativity is sooooo draining.

  21. b**** please October 13, 2011

    @almond, is this your little pointless personal opinion or everyone elses???SHDH
    Anyhow, Brandy is back on her grind and I’m so happy for her as well as all her upcoming project especially the album.

    WHERE IS KELLY!!!!!!!!!

  28. Bran Star October 13, 2011

    @Almond Joy FAIL, you are pathetic. Always lurking around Brandy related topics and throwing shade. But she’s got you watching her, and that’s the real tea. Poor that.

    Anywho, I’m a big fan of The Game. I really enjoy the show. Last season was really dramatic so I hope they resolve some older plot lines along with the new ones with the new characters they’ll bring in. I’m so glad Brandy’s a part of this, she’s really been on the acting grind.

  29. JUSTIN October 14, 2011

    Looks pretty good, Tia really did a good job losing the weight after her pregnancy. where was Kelly tho??

  30. Maura October 14, 2011

    I am definitely watching season 5!! It look like they spent a little bit more money on production this time around. I hope they can find some way to work Kelli back into the show and PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL BRITTANY!!!
