BET Network is presently in talks with the parent company of ‘The Game‘, Paramount, for the production of new episodes this year. On Memorial Day, the American audience was treated to a marathon show of ‘The Game‘. It was a good opportunity to remind ‘The Game‘ fans the story so far in the show and regain the interest. The show boasts of a good star cast which includes TV veterans Tia Mowry and Pooch Hall. The show’s cancellation in 2009 was due to CW’s reluctance to have a half-hour comedy in their prime-time schedule.

She gets the opportunity to get into one of the best med colleges in the country but lets go of it just to be with the sportsman.
