The Lowdown
Fifteen years, four cities and more table flips than anyone can count: Love & Hip Hop earned a proper send-off, and a three-network simulcast is the kind of victory lap most franchises never get. The real test is whether the cast is honest about what the show cost them, not just what it gave them.
Key Takeaways
- Love & Hip Hop: The Final Chapter is a six-part VH1 limited series premiering Tuesday, November 10, at 8 p.m. ET (BET Media Group).
- It airs as a weekly simulcast on VH1, BET and MTV (BET Media Group).
- Cast members from New York, Atlanta, Hollywood and Miami return for new interviews, along with producers, executives and journalists (BET Media Group).
- Featured names include Stevie J, Joseline Hernandez, Yandy Smith, Mimi Faust, Rasheeda Frost, Trina, Ray J, Scrappy and Yung Joc (BET Media Group).
The Story
The franchise that started in 2011 is getting its curtain call. Love & Hip Hop: The Final Chapter, a six-part VH1 original limited series, premieres Tuesday, November 10, at 8 p.m. ET, and it will air simultaneously on VH1, BET and MTV every week (BET Media Group).
Rather than a new season of drama, the series is a look back. BET Media Group says it brings together cast members from all four cities (New York, Atlanta, Hollywood and Miami) alongside the producers, executives, journalists and cultural commentators who watched the show evolve (BET Media Group).
The interview list reads like a franchise hall of fame: Stevie J, Joseline Hernandez, Yandy Smith, Mimi Faust, Rasheeda Frost, Trick Daddy, Safaree Samuels, Trina, Ray J, Scrappy and Yung Joc, plus commentators Angela Yee, Nina Parker and Jess Hilarious (BET Media Group).
The network frames the show as a reckoning with the franchise’s “breakout stars and business empires” as well as its “headline-making controversies.” It is produced by Antoinette Media, with Lashan Browning executive producing (BET Media Group). Complex has more on the end of the run (Complex).
