If they don’t come back there really is no show!
No I won’t be watching anymore
If these two. Leave the show there would be no. Point. The other characters are good but it wouldn’t be the same and this season. Is primarily focused. Around. Them. So i dont think. Keep the show would last
The show needs some new life. Melanie and Derwin were getting boring anyway.
I stopped watching ‘DURING’ the first episode of the new season. #BORING. Did all of that to bring it back and BET ruined it!
AGREED!!!
Great, the game has been getting on my nerves.
No I won’t be watching after this season. No offense to Wendy, Hosea or the other great cast members but Melaine and Derwin made the show…. I still remember when It was dropped from CW and I was making videos and petitioning to bring it back. I know that people have to live their lives but its like they are quiting on all that work the fans put in… I would be happy if they canceled the show and just did films with the storyline.. Hmmm.. I will tweet that to BET and Tia now.. #justmy2cents
I cant believe derwin n melanie wont return to the show i wont b watching any more
