Sep, 7 2016 | Written by ATLien

The highly anticipated premiere episode of ‘Atlanta‘ aired on F/X last night (September 6, 2016) and I love it already!

It’s certainly no secret that Atlanta is the place to be and now there’s a scripted television show based around the city we all love. The comedy, created by Donald Glover and co-starring Brian Tyree Henry, Zazie Beetz and Lakeith Stanfield, has received rave reviews and it’s definitely ‘must see’ tv this fall season.

Series synopsis:

Atlanta is one of the top cities for young rappers looking to make a name for themselves in the business. Among those up-and-comers is Alfred Miles, a hot new artist who is trying to understand the line between real life and street life. He is managed by his cousin, Earn, who gets caught up in the local rap scene and his cousin’s career after returning home to the ATL.

WATCH: Sorority Sisters – Episode #3 ‘Lemon Squeeze’ [FULL EPISODE]

Jan, 6 2015 | Written by ATLien

Rumors of their demise have been greatly exaggerated and after skipping a week for the New Year, VH1’s ‘Sorority Sisters’ returned with their 3rd episode last night (January 6, 2014).

[FLASHBACK: WATCH: ‘Sorority Sisters’ Episode #1, Episode #2]

Honestly, the show really isn’t that great but with all the ‘boycotting’ and petitions circulating around, y’all have managed to drum up interest in the lackluster show and VH1 has vowed to stand behind it.

[READ: Sorority Sisters Backlash! NPHC Issues Statement + VH1 Isn’t Backing Down… ]

My take on the situation? If you’re going to boycott one ratchet show, you should boycott them all! Starting with the Housewives franchises all the way down to Love & Hip Hop, but we all know that ain’t happening… But I digress.

VH1 synopsis of episode #3:

April visits her father and mulls over opening an online boutique. Priyanka oversees damage control with Veronica, and MeToya tries to bring peace to Adrene and Priyanka by hosting an old-fashioned Greek event.

Meanwhile, Veronica makes preparations for her wedding, and a boozy Priyanka faces off against Adrene and Veronica at a Greek event.
