BET's 'The Game' Tackles 7.7 Million Viewers

"Let's Stay Together' Draws 4.4 Million In Series Debut

BET scored a major ratings victory last night with the premiere of scripted series The Game, which drew 7.7 million viewers -- the network's biggest audience for a scripted series debut.

The African-American targeted network produced the fourth season of The Game - which follows the lives and relationships of players on a fictional pro-football team - after the CW cancelled the show after three seasons.

BET last night also drew 4.4 million viewers for the debut of a second scripted show, Let's Stay Together. The series, which takes a look at the relationship challenges of five young, aspirational African-Americans, was produced by actress/singer Queen Latifah's production company, Flavor Unit Entertainment.

last time I saw it they were showing like 2007 or 2008 episodes

The reason why they were showing those episodes was so that the BET audience could get acquainted with the show as it prepared to bring it back. It was a big push by the fans of The Game to bring the show back, and BET was the only network who saw the potential and put the effort to bring it back, and it just premiered last night, to the tune of 7.7 million people.

Ok well the last one I just saw was Maliq calling off him and Robin Givens' marriage. How old is that one? :unsure:
