VH1 Greenlights ‘Basketball Wives’ Spinoff Starring Evelyn Lozada & Chad Ochocinco

• I thought “Basketball Wives: L.A.” was the real spinoff. Guess that show isn’t coming back.
  Credit to VH1. They abandoned all of “Of Love” reality dating shows in favor of copying Bravo and they are currently Out-Bravoing Bravo.

  The Housewives shows (save for Beverly Hills) have become stale. Even with Atlanta still pulling in ratings, that show is on it’s way out too.

  Basketball Wives is entertaining. And it always trends on Twitter when it airs. This Evelyn and Chad show will also do well. And I’m sure her wedding will last way longer than 72 days.

• BBW is entertaining, but that Evelyn is absolutely vile. She works on BBW is a villainess, but I can’t imagine tuning in just to see her wedding.

• @NYSF

  RH of Atlanta pulls in +3 million viewers, New Jersey, Beverly Hills, and New York aren’t far behind either. The last BBW episode couldn’t even pass the 2 million mark. The RH aren’t going anywhere. Bloop! Bloop! Bloop!

• Typical VH1 crap…yet more reality garbage that is going to fail bigtime and who the hell came up with this title anyways?

• James, I never said cancellation. But it’s on it’s way out interest-wise because people are getting tired of the show. They need to recast it ASAP because Sheree vs Marlo vs NeNe vs Kandi is so damn tired at this point. Kim is trying to get a Bethenney type spin off. And Phaedra seems to be over it, plus there are rumors she may quit to produce VH1′s Love and Hip Hop spinoff.

• Hmm. I’m not exactly sure how I feel about this. Evelyn is hilarious on Basketball Wives, but I like to watch her acting absolutely crazy. This won’t be the same. What is with all of these wedding series, anyways? Removing a cast member and plopping them with their family – when is that EVER that entertaining to warrant a series?

• I feel the basketball wives show has grown into a complete disrespect and has no regards for the yong ladies coming up. The girl are.showing no class and are not I repeat examples of black womanhood. I want to tell tammy and evelyn to grown up.

  • I agree Iam so over this show and I feel they all need a reality check. They have daughter’s and as a mom and woman It’s a disgrace for them to carry on this way..The arguments that cause the fights are even stupid and Shawnee is just as much to blame, as an executive producer for the show maybe she should sort out a new set of mature adults that can handle being in the public view because the cast she has now is a reflection on her as well.

• Love Basketball Wives…so hooked. Feel so bad for Evelyn. She’s my favorite. This is the time she needs Jenn. But unfortunately Jenn was not supportive from the get-go and is probably saying to herself “Told you so.” But I think it’s sad that she wasn’t supportive and instead jealous. Chad and Eve were adorable, but something was just not there. Obviously, he has issues which he tried to mask. Fortunately she found out early in the marriage…she will bounce back to so much more. It’s tough… but so is she.
