VH1’s ‘I Love New York’ – a spinoff of the network’s wildly popular reality dating series ‘Flavor of Love’ – launched Tiffany “New York” Pollard into an enduring love affair with TV viewers over its two-season run across 2007-2008.
Boosting her to not only become one of the most popular reality stars of the 2000’s, the series’ success made it the parent project to a few spinoffs of its own.
Her status in the reality TV show halls of history may have been the catalyst behind network execs wanting to lift the starlet to a new generation of viewers via the November 23-aired ‘I Love New York: Reunited.’
Viewership = 227,000
Hosted by Vivica A. Fox, the reunion special saw Pollard reconnect with contestants from the first two seasons of the ‘I Love New York’ dating show and even announce her own engagement after years of searching for love.
Diehard fans may have taken to social media in droves to congratulate the ‘H.B.I.C.’ on her impending nuptials, but that seems to be where the love for New York ended.
Missing placement in the top 50 most-watched programs of the day ratings chart, ‘I Love New York: Reunited’ ranked #68 after collecting a moderate 227,000 viewers at the 8 o’clock hour – a timeslot dominated by sports entertainment (NFL, WWE).
Where was the promo? I heard about it after the fact….
Not surprised at all. The actual show was quite a snooze fest.
Because it was 12 years too late. When TF is love and hip hop coming back?! They could AT LEAST show re-runs. Damn
I feel like it was announced such short notice then I honestly forgot it was on. Tiffany still needs a need show. Miss her crazy self.
BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PROMO!!!
I STILL LOVE AND WANNA SEE MORE OF TIFFANY POLARD
Humble pie. No one cares sweetie. These reality “stars” think they’re stars. You’re good for the moment then you expire.
Yeah, because nobody knew about it….
Right show, wrong platform. This should’ve been released on Facebook live, like the red table. Her audience is there not watching vh1 days before thanksgiving
