‘Single Ladies’ review: Stacey Dash, LisaRaye mirror ‘Basketball Wives’ formula

The scripted new series “Single Ladies” packed in so many music references, I half-expected VH1 to resurrect “Pop Up Video,” with informative thought bubbles hovering over the heads of Stacey Dash, LisaRaye, and Charity Shea.
The cameos were in full effect on “Single Ladies,” an original two-hour movie turned TV series.  First it was Eve .  Then TLC’s Chilli stopped by.  Then Common played a Mayor while Jermaine Dupri and the “Real Housewives” Kandi Burruss partied in the background.

'Basketball Wives' Season 3 premiere bonus clip: Meeka trashes Royce because she was a dancer

Basketball Wives " returned last night with its Season 3 premiere -- and it picked up right where all the drama left off last season: Everyone's mad at Royce, Tami hates Evelyn and Shaunie pretty much stays out of it all.


Fans were also introduced to a new Wife: Meeka, who'smarried to former Golden State Warrior player-turned-scout Speedy Claxton .


In a bonus clip that VH1 didn't air, Meeka dines with her husband and gives him the lowdown on all the ladies, namely Royce, a former Orlando Magic and Miami Heat dancer, who hasa child with Magic center Dwight Howard -- a big no-no to the Wives.
"I think what bothers me most about Royce is she was a dancer," Meeka tells Speedy. "She crossed the line. I don't know how I can be a wife and be her friend. You know how I feel about stuff like that."


Although Meeka and Royce did have a face-to-face meeting in the premiere, it was hardly a showdown of Wife vs Dancer.


"Ok, it was a rule you're not supposed to fraternize with players," Royce says to Meeka. "However, you can't really tell someone who they can and cannot be with."


Meeka must quickly get her claws out because in a preview for the season, she seems to have dove head-first into the catfights.
"Meeka is a trouble-maker," Tami says matter of factly.

Evelyn Lozada: New 'Basketball Wives' Features Lozada, Drama and Little Else

Evelyn Lozada is Holding 'Basketball Wives' Together By A String

If you have ever read anything that I have written before, I apologize. I tend to get a bit snooty when it comes to my entertainment.



This includes TV shows as well s sporting events. I have covered everything fromDancing with the Stars to Cricket. While I am still trying to grasp the finer workings of Cricket, I have a pretty good grasp on quality television.



I have after all been watching since I was able to open my eyes. I have tried to watch Basketball Wives, a show on loosely tied to anything basketball.

Its biggest star, Evelyn Lozada is marrying Chad Ochocinco, a wide receiver for crying out loud. My biggest problem with the show is substance.



I love me some drama, I really do. If there was a subscription needed to watch Maury Povich, I would fork over whatever the cost.



The drama in Basketball Wives is just to over blown. I can't remotely relate to their plights, and I am really trying people.



The third season premiered on Monday evening. Once again I was treated to wives and girlfriends of past and current athletes living the good life.



They have everything at their finger tips, yet they can't help but back stab and cat fight for the duration of the show. We have been promised by Lozada on her Twitter account that more drama is on the way.



This is the first and last time I will ever state this, I can't take anymore drama. I am done.

‘Basketball Wives’ premiere: More fights, more drama, more fun

"Basketball Wives" has officially returned for its third season, firmly entrenching itself as television's most guilty pleasure. But then again, is it really a guilty pleasure if we unashamedly love this weekly trainwreck? A wreck that features verbal jabs, angry threats, and cat fights, all taking place within the backdrop of lavish condos and expensive dinner rendezvous?



"Basketball Wives" began with Jennifer Williams showing Evelyn Lozada and Shaunie O'Neal what life is like as a single woman. Jen stated that her her ex-husband, Eric Williams, told her she had to move out as he was selling their condo. With her tears now behind her, Jennifer tells viewers she feels like a "new person right now."




That brings us to Royce Reed, who apparently also is single. Her relationship with Dwayne, last seen in season two, didn't end well. Royce and Dwayne simply didn't "mesh," and Royce referred to the brotha as "safe."
