Thread: The Game

Started 3 years, 7 months ago by rabal
This show has been officially picked up by the CW. Looks like Tia Mowry is the Tracee Ellis Ross of this show. Let's see if she can carry this. Let's also see if we can have at least one episode where there is no racial joke involving the white character. Wouldn't it be so cool if this show started off like Girlfriends did in S1 and S2? You know, with good stories, funny writing, sympathetic ...

I already liked the Mowerys, and will have to check this show out.

I know Aldis Hodge (Derwin, the Tia character's boyfriend), and he's excited by the pick-up but enjoying the calm before the storm, if you will. Will pass along any insider info as I come across it...

Add me to the list of people who will be watching this because of Tia Mowery, I used to love Sister Sister.

Like I mentioned in another thread, maybe some of the H&H writers can move over. As long as they leave their patented Mona rimshot one-liners behind. Wendy Robinson trying to sound ghetto This made me laugh and laugh. She talks like that on purpose ? Seriously? I thought for sure that was her pre-diction voice.

twotrey replied 3 years, 6 months ago
Well, Aldis joined me for my screening of the new Pirates flick tonight, and he gave me a bit of news just he got last week, which hasn't been formally announced: his role is being recast, as is another on the show. What made this kind of sting was that there's already been some promo in place with him on it with Tia and such. Feel bad for him, but he has a great, upbeat attitude about the ...

They cancelled Half & Half for this? Well, who knows what retooling they would've done to Half & Half. As I said once before, it's probably a blessing in disguise that H&H didn't get renewed. At least I can remember the show in a good way.

I finally caught the finale on the CW website (no streaming problems) and I loved it. Can't wait to see this show return next season.

I don't like the earlier episodes of season 1. It seems like they did a bit of retooling the second half of the season. There is more attention paid to these extraneous football wives in the earlier seasons.

sadangel replied 2 years, 3 months ago
Did anyone see the promo for the new season tonight?

ajra replied 2 years, 3 months ago
No - Please tell me what was in it!

Too many posts to quote and ditto. I wish we could find out what the writers are thinking; if they actually have a plan or if they are writing the episodes by using MadLibs. One thing I must have missed - why are Kelly's friends around? I thought they lived far-ish away. Can someone fill me in?

My sister goes to Clark-Atlanta, and she called to tell me that she met Pooch Hall (I almost wrote Derwin) yesterday. After she got a picture (and stopped swooning), she was able to ask him if The Game was coming back, and he said it is, but he doesn't know if he'll be on it because he's working on other projects (I've seen him on Accidentally on Purpose). I hope all of the cast members come back--it won't be the same...

Got to see the rerun tonight, some thoughts.... Not trusting Janae at all....she likely used defective condoms after discovering the medical bear in Derwin's drawer. LOVED the outfit Mel had on when she got the ice....it was classy but very sexy, TM has nice legs and a great ass. Tasha's bra was nice but didn't like the shorts. What happened to the Rocky Carroll character? I liked her with him better. Jason was an ass, but I...

Yeah, but Jason is complaining that he has to downgrade--as if he financially he can't afford something better--when in reality he doesn't have to if he's worth 50 million I imagine that has to do with the fact that Jason isn't willing to buy MORE to replace the things he still thinks he rightfully owns. Jason also lives on a budget of his own making and pretends like those millions are almost non-existent. it is a nice...

The way that some of these women talk to her, Tasha included, I'm surprised Mel hasn't snatched one of these bitches bald. But, she'll always take the high road with them....I guess. Still, I wish, just once, she'd "take her earrings off" and let one of them have it. Most of them deserve it. Amen to this. For all of the times she's been there for them, it still astonishes me how quickly they turn on...

Why do they continue to make Melanie so unlikable. She's so self-centered and dramatic. I can't feel any sympathy for her or care whether Derwin takes her back. Oy, seriously. I never even though Melanie was all that selfish until they decided to make her wanting to talk about Derwin a running gag. And unless someone loses a limb, there's no way they're going to squeeze a drop of sympathy or compassion for the Merwinay...

That was awful. Why do I feel like they skipped an episode or two. I have no idea how Derwin knew about Mel and the Doctor. No clue how he suddenly decided that he wants to make it work with Janae. No explanation or conversation with his exgirl of 10 (?) years. He just throws her out and that's it.... now he's playing house. Kelly is depressed and running. Tasha is making me cringe by singing in the office when it was obvious that...

This article on essence.com mentions BET's involvement with The Game and potential new episodes. Although there are no definite details it is the first mention that I've seen not on a blog, fan site, etc. ETA it was posted on August 25 so it's fairly recent.

"What you care about Eggs?" That's probably one of my favorite episodes. That argument between Derwin and Melanie when she stopped by to pick up her "thing" was one of the funniest moments of the whole series. "No, no. Wait. You're Malik's BITCH!" "That picture is not stupid! (pause) You're stupid!" Derwin's dramatic...

I would love for The Game to be on BET....but if they are going to cut out the word 'bitch' (ya'll know how Tasha's ghetto behind was!), then I'd rather that they didn't.
