VH1 Renews "Hip Hop Squares" For A Second Season

About a few days before the revived series wraps up its first season on the network, VH1 announced its decision to order an additional season of Hip Hop Squares. The decision stems from the show averaging healthy ratings, including the premiere episode attracting 3.2 million total viewers. It has ranked as the top non-sports cable show in its time period with 
persons 18-34 and VH1’s highest-rate new series in a year. The new edition of Hip Hop Squares is executive produced by Ice Cube and hosted by DeRay Davis. The show wraps up its first season tonight at 9:00pm and 9:30pm ET with rappers Fat Joe and French Montana squaring off (no pun intended) in the first episode and singing trios Bell Biv DeVoe and SWV compete against each other in the second.

Third Season of “Hip Hop Squares” To Premiere Monday, March 13 on VH1

After taking a four-year hiatus, Hip Hop Squares is set to return for a brand new, completely revamped series tomorrow at 9:00pm and 9:30pm ET. A lot of changes are coming down the pike for Hip Hop Squares including the show moving from New York to Los Angeles, a brand new set, a new host in former frequent HHS panelist DeRay Davis and the new series is executive produced by Ice Cube. The other major change that has seemingly occurred in this series is that two celebrities will compete on each episode instead of civilian contestants. Models Tyson Beckford will be facing Don Benjamin in the first episode and husband/wife Ray J and Princess Love will be going head-to-head against each other in the second episode. Check out a special five-minute preview of the premiere episode on VH1.com and stay tuned for the star-studded, exciting, lively and unpredictable third season of Hip Hop Squares starting tomorrow on VH1.

"Mind Of A Man" Debuts To Good Ratings

Happy 2014, everyone! Being the first non-review article of The Blog Is Right this year, I'm going to kick it off on a good note by briefly discussing Mind Of A Man premiering to good ratings last night. Similar to what The Chase on its debut night, GSN aired four consecutive new episodes last night to welcome the new half-hour original series to the network with a two-hour mini marathon running from 8:00 p.m-10:00 p.m. and reran the shows from 11:00 p.m.-1:00 a.m. the next morning. As I have stated on the TBIR Facebook page, the quadruple-header premiere of Mind Of A Man averaged 407,250 total viewers: a respectable start for the rookie show considering the network averages 389,000 total viewers in primetime and 306,000 total viewers overall*. Here's a detailed breakdown of how the show performed throughout the evening, including how the show fared among the key "Adults 18-49" demographics:
