A couple of weeks ago, “Reed Between the Lines” premiered on BET, and I watched it and wrote this review of my initial reaction. I was rooting for it for real. I know I’m a professional hater at times but I REALLY wanted this show to be good. I’m a fan of Tracee Ellis Ross [...]

Last night, BET decided they wanted to be about that life and actually put on some quality programming. I was skeptical but they kinda pulled it off. First was the BET Hip Hop Awards, which I actually ended up missing most of because negrolepsy got me. I took an accidental extended blink (read: nap) and [...]

So last night was the highly anticipated premiere of the TV show “The Game.” You know, the one that’s been off air for 2 years because CW kicked it to the curb. So fans lobbied for it like our health insurance depended on it. Yes, that one. BET picked it up and we all deep [...]

So y’all know I LOVE me some Oprah. I am a self-admitted STAN. Mother Oprah is IT and I heart she. Oprah’s my mentor in my head and I’ve been in the audience of her show twice. I was mad salty both times because I was praying it’d be the Favorite things one both times, [...]

So I went into the BET Awards expecting much fail, like in the previous year. Expectations CANNOT be placed low enough BET. Let me definitely say that. How bad has BET been in previous years? Well, last year, it was so bad that my recap was in TWO parts. First I flipped tables at the [...]

Hey folks! As you know, Twitter makes every show worth watching. Even the EBT BET Awards. Well, ESPECIALLY the BET Awards. We all know that the devil plays hopscotch in BET’s parking lot so it promises to be an interesting nite. Stay tuned for my BET Awards party, featuring live-tweeting from the most foolish and [...]

So I received a phonecall last night from my Sis asking if I was watching the BET Celebration of Gospel show. I asked her why, because she knows of my disdain for BET. I only watch the channel to kill my brain cells not so slowly write roast recaps of their shows . Well, apparently, there [...]

So the BET Hip Hop Awards were last night, and I had to watch (especially after my sis called me to tell me she’ll expect my recap in the morning. All that pressha). I did the usual and live-tweeted it. Foolery ensued. Since BET Awards was nothing but lowlights, I’mo just write this in question [...]

I’m still in Boofooville, USA for this conference. The city is small, but my hotel is nice. I could cartwheel, *WALL SLIDE* and do the Bro Franklin all up in my room. That’s how big it is. iDigs it. Plus the free WiFi in my room got a *fist pump* from me. But yeah, y’all [...]

Part 2 of my BET Awards 09 coverage. This week’s sternly-worded letter has been well-earned, and quite the opposite of the last letter I wrote. With that being said, I must warn folks. I don’t even like to cuss that much in REAL life. However, I may be slightly vulgar in this letter because I’s [...]

As you all know the BET Awards was yesterday. This is part 1 of two posts on the most overhyped yet underdelivering event of the year. I decided to split it into 2 posts because it got so long and I hadn’t properly cussed BET out yet. So Part 2 is my letter to BET. [...]

Hey folks. After the reviews of the Grammy’s folks been leaving messages on my Facebook wall that they can’t wait to see my review of the BET Honors, but I’s sad to say there will be a very limited review. I didn’t watch much of it because the Grammys had me Award Show and Performanced [...]

“It was so awesome, I changed my draws twice.” – Ig SubWood (about BET AWARDS) Dare I say it, the 2008 BET Awards was actually pretty good. Unlike years past, when the only things I could remember was the high level of coonery and buffoonery, this year’s award actually had highlights for me. Given, coonery [...]
