BET... Come on


The week of the BET awards I expressed my displeasure with the network. For me, it all stems from the network that it started out as to the network it is now.

When BET started the foundation was Bobby Jones on Sunday’s, and Video Soul during the week. The programming continued to expand with Video Vibrations, Rap City, BET news, BET Tonight with Ed Gordon, Teen Summit, Comic View, etc.

Today, most of the needed shows are gone (Teen Summit, BET News) and the talent is horrible. Remember when it was Donnie Simpson or Sherry Carter on Video Soul? What about how well Ananda Lewis and Prince Dajour delt with teens and their issues on Teen Summit?

I said that all that to address the recent foolishness that is happening on BET’s 106th and Park.

The two very young acting hosts (Rocsi and Terrance) had their usual ignorant banter back and forth, then Rocsi acted like she got upset and stormed off the set…

Now people this is what in entertainment a “Bit”… She acts mad at him walks off the set then take s a vacation while people speculate if she is coming back. Is “Bit” was done for ratings.

106’s ratings have not really been that good lately, and they already did this when AJ and Free were the host.

Check the video below to see exactly what I am talking about. This is such a poor acting job by Terrance and Rocsi..

BET please step your game up….. PLEASE!!!!
