      These shows are pre-recorded. Tia already knew that she would be written off the show. They had to make it official by calling and letting her know "just so after the I’m happy here in Cali..I’m moving to DC" line. The show is to busy for me, to much going on in a 30 min span!

      I would always try to catch up every now and then but when it moved to BET, the format change was too much. But to answer the question, "NO." I will NOT be watching without ‘Girl Melanie’ – there’s really no point to the show without her. Her character balanced out ‘Tasha’s’ stereotypical narcissism and the other dumb crap the writers frequently tried to squeeze into a half hour.

      so many shows try to survive the loss of a main character but very few are able to make the transition effectively. This is the beginning of the end at least in terms of quality.

      I saw Tia’s announcement first. Well if she was fired I wonder why? I thought she quit. It seems strange that Tia and Pooch would both be leaving. That’s why I never get too wrapped up in television because you really never know what’s going on behind closed doors. The public rarely ever gets the real truth.

      THE REAL REASON SHE IS NO LONGER ON THE SHOW

      1.)She can’t seem to drop the baby weight
      2.) Her acting is worst and she is boooorrring
      3.) They cannot conceal how unattractive she has become (that makeup is very Tammyfaye in above photo)
      4.) Derwin and Melanie never had any chemistry
      5.) Viewers complained that the show is horrible since its returned to TV.

      I knew it was reaching when they had Tasha fucking a male prostitute. And now it comes out she was just a straight hoe…I was not feeling that.

      I will be watching tia’s reality show though, because it seems like that’s all we as viewers are being bombarded with. Smh

      Well the show has been the same since Jason’s wife left the show, she was a very big part of the show, and now they don’t even mention her. so Tia leaving is a good thing, get out early while you can and why and show is still on the air. They have Tisha Mack looking and acting like a fool anyway. Only watch is nothing else is on.

      I acutally agree with the earlier poster. It seems like she can’t lose the baby weight. However, they shouldnt have fired her if that’s the case. Also, they should have never gotten rid of Kelly Pitts!! Or cut her hair!!

      This is foolish, if they were going to do all this in 2 seasons, why bring back the show at all. And by the way they do bring up Kelly. Melanie brought her up when she was meeting Chardonnay for the first time, she kept on saying she was good friends with his first wife, and that she will try not to give her a hard time, however she is not Kelly,and that she is a very very good friend of hers.

      Like many others have already said, The Game was never the same since it returned. I think BET’s problem is that they put so much drama in it to live up to the viewer’s expectations of the show. But what they didnt realize is that they was adding unnecessary drama. I think they should have gave the viewers what they wanted and allowed Melanie to be pregnant by Derwin, and ultimately they should have started the show back the way it ended when it was on CW. Also,(in reply to an above comment) I wouldnt say Tia needs to raise her child, and not work, and I dont think she is greedy at all. Tia seems to be very humble and I feel that if she thinks that she can juggle both motherhood and work then she should go for it, life’s too short to not go after all your dreams and fufill them. Anyhow whats done is done. Its all downhill from here since Tia and Pooch are gone. I wish best of luck to Tia Mowry and Pooch Hall in their future endeavors!

      R.I.P THE GAME, BET murdered you…

      All of you are wrong.

      It is that Tia’s marriage is strained as she was only in atl for 3 months. It isnt that she couldnt loose the weight gains as she is (it was 10mo later this past April 2012! when she was recording last year it was Sept 11, just 3mo after she had cree who was c section so tia couldnt exercise).

      It is MONEY. The cast took a pay cut to move from Crappy White to Blkk EXPLOITATION TV. They were promised a pay raise after 2 years if they met certain goals which they exceeded with the 10mill viwers .

      BET dont wanna pay so Tia walked. Pooch was willing but w no girl Mel there cant be Ding Dong Davis.

      Ive been disappointed in this show every since BET picked it up! The entire cast went from being classy to trashy. The story lines are awful now. There is nothing positive about it anymore and the chemistry between Mel and Derwin was not there anymore. Every since Tia got married in real life, I think her real hubby may have had a problem with her chemistry with Pooch (Derwin) because she and Derwin never kissed or showed any affection on camera anymore. Tia’s lines always seemed rushed and you could tell her heart was not in it anymore.

      With Tia and Pooh gone, I will probably not watch the Game on a regular, if at all, they made the show! Main top characters of the main characters. Even if they replace them with the same character, I do not think I will like it. This is a bummer. I will just watch something else.
