“Reboot” appears to be the name of the game in 2017, especially as it relates to shows birthed in the ’90s and early 2000s.  Fans of sitcoms like ‘That’s So Raven,’ ‘Full House,’ and ‘Will & Grace’ may have already had their wishes to see the shows’ casts respectively reunite for another go at ratings glory granted, but those calling for the revival of other hits from the time period are being greeted with less enthusiasm (to say the least).

The difficult case for finding footing and funding is definitely such for ‘Sister, Sister’ – an unfortunate truth its stars, Tia & Tamera, confirmed on a recent episode of daytime talk show, ‘The Real.’  Tuck in below as the sisters reunite with Marques Houston (‘Roger’) and talk about the hurdles they’re overcoming to get the show back on the air:

Whoopi Goldberg is on course to bag a salary of $3.5 million should she hold onto her role as a moderator on the successful TV series ‘The View‘.

$1.5 million higher than the $2 million she received last season, the amount- if coughed up by ABC– would see her retain her position after she announced that she was to part ways with the show at the end of its current season.

Seems straight forward? Well…it isn’t. For, Goldberg’s request also comes with a number of conditions.

Sources close to the show reveal:

She wants this one ABC executive off the show. She blames this person for trying to turn The View into Good Morning America with the rotating hosts and contributors and doesn’t want that exec involved in the show any more.

She is tired of having to answer to people that she doesn’t feel like are worthy of their positions.

So she wants to be an executive producer of the show so that she has a seat at the decision-making table and can have more control over the things going on. 

She’s asking for no less than $3.5 million a year to return. She feels that she helped this show turn the corner again in the ratings and knows she plays a huge factor in its success.

She wants them to pay her what she thinks she’s worth, despite the fact the network is crying budget concerns.

Goldberg is credited with retaining the show’s viewership following a confusing casting period which saw her forced to watch nine different co-hosts come and go since Barbara Walters‘ departure in 2014.

The source adds:

Now that the core five have good chemistry and the ratings are going back up, Whoopi has been less grumpy.

‘She keeps telling the producers behind the scene: “See, this could work if they don’t start f***ing with us again!

Your thoughts?

If NeNe Leakes is to return to ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ she may have to readjust her attitude towards its new fun loving star Porsha Williams.

For, today has seen the Reality TV royal blasted by fans after she tore into Williams during an appearance on ‘Watch What Happens Live’.

Why they’re annoyed with her?

Her supposed habit of bashing, bullying and berating one half of the show’s cast when she reconciles with other half.

@jjmcphatter @BravoWWHL @NeNeLeakes @Andy I agree with you? Porsha is the show, Nene is jealous and needs attention. Nene is the real fraud! Acting all brand new,looking a gool

As the show’s ratings have fared well without Leakes, several fans believe that she may be threatened by Williams’ undeniable rise to the top of the show’s pecking order on a popularity front.

Nene, don’t forget when no one liked you in season 7, Phaedra & Porsha were the ONLY ones that were loyal & would film with you. #rhoa #wwhl

Nene, but you had an alliance with Phaedra & Porsha when you amped up Porsha to attack Kenya at that reunion #RHOA #WWHL

Here’s hoping the usually endearing Leakes returns to the series packing more humour than hate when it returns for a tenth season this November.

After Lifetime hit a ratings high note with its Angela Bassett-directed biographical film that chronicled the tumultuous relationship of her superstar parents Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown (click here to read more about that), TV One is looking to follow suit by unveiling an in-depth look at the life of Bobbi Kristina.

Simply titled ‘Bobbi Kristina,’ the made-for-TV flick will reportedly lend an “intimate look at the highs and lows of parental, familial and romantic love complicated by fame through the eyes of a sensitive, vulnerable young woman.”

Joseline Hernandez, the star of the well-produced Reality TV drama ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’ painted the city of Atlanta into her playground hours ago when she celebrated her birthday with a grand party.

Joined by her common law husband Stevie J, the Puerto-Rican influencer threw the event at Buckhead‘s Gold Room and celebrated with guests as she continues to pull in stellar ratings from the aforementioned ‘Atlanta’ with the help of newcomers Jessica Dime and the mononymous Tommie.

On all fronts, the ‘Basketball Wives‘ empire sits a few notches beneath Bravo’s ‘Real Housewives‘ franchise.

So, with hopes of securing more eyes and higher approval ratings, its producers have placed key players from its cancelled Miami show in its Los Angeles mix.

One of these players is Tami Roman, who stepped into support ‘Basketball Wives LA‘ following the departure of its star Draya Michele.

How Roman feels about all of this?

Watch her discussion with ‘The Breakfast Club‘ to find out!

The reworked ‘Wives’ will return to VH1 on April 17th armed with fan favourites Malaysia Pargo and Brandi Maxiell as well as Roman, Jackie Christie, Evelyn Lozada, Shaunie O’Neal and Keonna Green.

Thanks to an impressive debut to the tune of 3.2 million viewers total and coming in as VH1’s highest rated new series of the year, rapper/actor Ice Cube and his Cube Vision production company – in conjunction with Jesse Collins Entertainment – are now celebrating news their show, ‘Hip Hop Squares,‘ has been renewed for season 2.

Tyra Banks has returned to ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and it appears that she’s bringing some major names with her.

Dwindling ratings saw the show brought to an end in 2016 after 22 cycles, but before then the series made headlines when fan favorites Nigel Barker, Miss Jay Alexander, and Jay Manuel were all let go in 2012.

Despite a number of new names being introduced to the mix, viewership continued on a downward trend – eventually bringing about the cancellation announcement.

A revival on VH1 this year saw ‘ANTM’ reimagined with Rita Ora as host and an all new panel of judges.

But with Banks back in the saddle for the next iteration of the show’s return, it appears nostalgia is the name of the game.

For, this week Barker, Alexander, and Manuel took to social media to share shots of them “reunited.” Coincidence? We think not.

Commenting on the pics, Alexander wrote:

“First there was Naomi, Linda, and Christy.? Now this Trio back together catwalking on New York City Streets can only mean one thing hmmmmmmmmmm…? Trouble..!”

Barker, who upon leaving joined Naomi Campbell‘s rival show ‘The Face,’ added:

“Reunited and it feels so… about time we brought the band back together don’t you think?”

Excited? We are.

Sure ‘ANTM’ hasn’t produced another Eva, Yaya, Tocarra, and more in a while, but this particular line-up made for an engaging watch.

We’re all for the throwback. Are you?

John Legend is quite the busy bee.  Just a week after announcing his 2017 ‘Darkness & Light’ tour had expanded its dates beyond North America to parts of Europe, reports have surfaced the singer/songwriter has inked a deal to take his talents to reality TV!
