Hosted by 50 cent this new show is a comedy sketch that includes music performances and live pranks. I’ve watched the first show and it was somewhat funny, maybe I expect too much from 50 but then again it’s the first show so maybe the season will grow into a hysterical show, time till tell on this one.

It is exciting times for BET and as a long time viewer I am enthusiastic to see the show tonight but also all the new content they have lined up for the fall!
