My Problem with BET's The Game

Hello World,

It has been a good few minutes since the last time that I posted a blog. So long that I was going to start a brand new one but I decided revisit this one so here I go.

I have a BIG TIME problem with The Game now that it is on BET because it is on BET. That network sure does know how to mess up a good thing. First I don't understand why it is that Melanie who is the main character can not have any children because she had 1 abortion. That doesn't make any sense. And why is it that she is not practicing medicine which was her main goal for the ENTIRE first 3 seasons to finish medical school and become a doctor. She gave up on going to her dream school so that she could be with her man and be in the same place where he was going to be. Now there is absolutely nothing wrong with supporting your man, but why is it that her man isn't supporting her? Especially since she always wanted to be a doctor and never just wanted to be an football player's wife.

Second how is it that when the show came back 2 years later Brittany (Jason Pitts daughter) was a full blown teenager? In the first season she turned 6 and now all of a sudden she is 16 it has not been 10 years. Be consistent BET. In recent interviews the cast members have stated that Brittany Daniels who played Kelly Pitts is not on this season for "personal reasons" well I think that BET just didn't to have a white character on the show. HEY BET JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE A BLACK NETWORK AND THE GAME IS A BLACK SHOW DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEIR CAN'T BE ANY CHARACTERS OF ANOTHER RACE. We do not just live in a black and white America any longer and our television should be a reflection of that.

It is bad enough that you have made the characters even more hood and more ghetto than they ever where before which just enhances the stereotype of black people as a whole.

So in essence BET you are failing as a network, and The Game despite it's popularity is failing as a show, isn't there anyone at the network that has the guts to tell Debra Lee no?

I guess not.

And that is just my .04 cents.

Until next time

Peace & Many Blessings.
