I was done with this show, but now that the dreadful twin is gone, I'm gonna take a peek.

Can't enjoy Jason any longer because they soiled him with Brandi's character. What a joke!

Tasha Mack is no longer interesting.

Malik? Sigh...

The show has been gutted beyond recognition, but no Mowry means it's worth taking a looksy.

Losing Tia IMO was huge and Im sure will be reflected on the show. I saw the cast on Wendy today and by cast I mean Brandi, Lauren London and some new cute guy and boy did it all seem unrecognizable. I think this new season ill be the lowest one yet

Wow took a break from my work and decided to watch this. Boy was it bad. Ciara's transvestite looking ass can't act and neither can Lauren London. And this new guy is butt-ugly. Ugh! I can't believe they are about to revolve the show around these two.

Pooch Hall made me tear up and remember how much I used to love Derwin and his relationship with Melanie. RIP The Game!

Melanie wasn't on at all. Derwin made an appearance so he could be transferred from San Diego to Baltimore for the new character who is supposed to be a young, hotshot player.

I loved Jason and Kelly too and I can't with his character being saddled with Brandy. He bought this girl a spa. You mean to tell me cheap ass Jason just buys this chick a spa after knowing her for a few months? These characters are not the same ones from the CW and not in a evolutionary way more like a "WTF did they just do?" kind of way.

this show has lost its identity. Is it a comedy? Is it a drama? I wish it would pick one and go with that bc this in between isn't quite working anymore.

Losing Melanie was a mistake. They should have done whatever to keep her. Was surprised that she and Derwin are still married bc I thought they'd got a divorce over the break

I also really think the they should have cancelled this and considered giving Tasha a spinoff. When CW ended its run, she was thinking of running her own record label. I think that's a good angle they could still explore as we follow that dream. Hire an assistant, a male producer, 2 female artists and one male artist and that could be a good starting cast.

All the cast changes remind of Footballers' Wives where Tonya was the only character that had been their from the beginning. Not to mention both shows had a Chardonny.

My first reaction to the spa was, is this suppose to show that he loves her more than Kelly? Plus I really hated her introduction into the show and the implication that Jason was a racist.

The drastic change in characters happened immediately when the show went to BET. I can't stomach what used to be The Game! I don't care at all! I don't recognize any of these characters, and I will say a 3rd time - my man Jason with Chardonnay is a quick dagger through my heart! What a damn joke!

When I learned BET had picked up the show, I was on cloud nine until I saw the first show. It was horrific! Melanie, Dr. Med School, in charge of the Sunbeams? That really set the tone for what was left of the show.

And you know what else, for a network that shows ratchet chit 24/7, why during The Game reruns from earlier seasons is "bitch" bleeped out? That makes no sense!

When Jason caught Brittney making out with a white boy, she made a comment on how Jason didn't date and he mentioned Camille(Stacy Dash's character). Brittney then said she was "barely" black.

So I took it as the shows way of saying Jason dating a light skinned black woman doesn't count as him dating a black woman. If that makes sense.

      I've been pondering how strange it is that in real life NLG was being more supportive of Haley Pullos than I would have been ....  and now Alexis is doing that for Kristina.

      Natalia worrying about her dress getting dirty during her DUI arrest had to be a reference to Haley Pullos and the $400 shirt.   The birth scene was really good. It could have been OTT but wasn't. There was this great moment was Michael was talking about how he's seen every sonogram and been with her all the way where it registered with Willow that he's been extremely involved with this and she had no idea but then couldn't say anything because she's obviously cheating too. And then they acknowledged each other and he actually thanked her. It was very humanizing for both characters.

      This show treats Claire like a glorified extra prop not the granddaughter of the 2 biggest supercouples this show has ever had. I don't think was ever invested in Claire nor writing for her & her connections to majority of the town. What a waste of a legacy character with so much potential

      Kim Zimmer could have had a nice career as a supporting actress in Hollywood, but that does not appear to be what she wanted. That's fine, but in the eighties, she was not going to have many options as a leading actress. The eighties were brutal for a performer like her.  Her one big film role lasted a minute or two. Even while she was on GL, she should have been doing episodic television. Was her agent that incompetent or was she just bad at auditioning? Her episode of "Designing Women" was quite popular and was discussed at the time for its subject matter, but she never followed up on it. It's bizarre to me.

      Billy just showed up for Vanessa's memorial (Sept 9, '96), which is so nice!  My first time seeing him like this outside of random clips from the past. He's out of jail for 24 hours, so not long. It's good to see him with the family.

      Definitely was more recent than not; when the set originally returned, the change hadn't happened.

      It was nice seeing Victorias house and I see it’s been remodelled. I’m sure this happened awhile ago but since I tuned out from the show for so long I am only noticing it now. Looks beautiful though!  Also, Billy and Sally gross me out so much. I don’t know what it is I hate so much about them. They give me the ick. Definitely a mismatch. I don’t buy that these people would be attracted to eachother in real life much less have a relationship..

      Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them?

      Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
