Belle Collective is an underrated gem that originally aired on OWN. Reality TV fans who enjoy ensemble shows will appreciate this series. It follows a group of Black women in Mississippi who are entrepreneurs and socialites, with the show documenting their busy lives as they build their brands, businesses, and families.

But, of course, a reality TV show wouldn’t be complete without a little bit of drama. Belle Collective has plenty of it. The show has the same essence as The Real Housewives, but it’s unique in its own way. There’s just been one season of Belle Collective so far, making this series a perfect weekend binge.

OWN’s reality television breakout Love & Marriage: Huntsville is seeing a ratings boom in its third season of the network, Shadow and Act can exclusively report.

The show led Saturday night’s cable telecast among its key demo, delivering its most-watched episode ever with more than 1 million total viewers in L+3 for its second episode of the season. This makes it OWN’s most-watched unscripted telecast since March 2019 (an episode of Iyanla: Fix My Life). It also makes Love & Marriage: Huntsville Saturday night’s No. 1 telecast across broadcast and cable with the African American W25-54 and W18-49, outperforming NBC’s coverage of the Summer Olympics in both demos. OWN was also Saturday night’s No. cable network among W25-54 and W18-49, only behind USA Network.

Love & Marriage: Huntsville “follows the lives of longtime friends Melody and Martell Holt, LaTisha and Marsau Scott and Kimmi and Maurice Scott in Huntsville, Alabama. This season, there’s a whole new dynamic — the Holts are officially divorced and trying to co-parent peacefully, business is booming for LaTisha and Marsau’s cigar bar, and Kimmi and Maurice are struggling to parent a teenager.”

The show is produced by Kingdom Reign Entertainment and ITV America with Carlos King, Bernie Schaeffer, Angela Dugan, Brent Nisbett and Andrew Hoagland serving as executive producers.

Call Cita…

Carlos King’s BET show “BET Presents “The Encore” caught the attention of viewers who wanted to tune in for the falsetto and fracas girl group adventure.

As previously reported the 10-episode series features R&B songstresses Shamari DeVoe (Blaque), Aubrey O’Day (Danity Kane) Irish Grinstead & LeMisha Grinstead (702), Nivea, Fallon King (Cherish), Felisha King (Cherish), Pamela Long (Total), and Kiely Williams (3LW/The Cheetah Girls) living together for 30 days to record an album, learn choreography, and practice vocals.

The premiere of the show was explosive and featured talented twin tyrants Fallon and Felisha cracking “Auntie” jokes, bragging about their BIG [millionaire] bags, and clashing with 702’s LaMisha and Irish.

It also featured Nivea becoming a fan fave with her neutrality, quirkiness, and apparent affinity for rice cakes. Oh, and did we mention that Cita’s back and acting as host?

Last night the fun continued and some ladies were seen struggling in the studio.

According to BET, the show’s already a hit and they have the viewership and ratings to prove it. Per a press release, the network’s noting that “The Encore” was part of its “Winning Wednesday” lineup alongside Tyler Perry’s “Sistas” that racked up 2.5 MM total viewers.

BET is forming the next big R&B girl group — with the help of members from platinum-selling ensembles like 702, Total, Danity Kane, 3LW, Blaque and Cherish.

The reality show “BET Presents The Encore” will premiere June 9 and includes eight former members from groups who had success in the ‘90s and 2000s, as well as Grammy-nominated R&B singer Nivea.

“I felt that girl groups never got its just do … and I, as a content creator, wanted to … educate the masses on who I feel are the forgotten sisters of music,” executive producer Carlos King said in an interview with The Associated Press. “I wanted to pay homage to that industry and really give these women an opportunity to share their stories and their struggles.”
