Tia Mowry Leaving The Game

Tia Mowry seems to be leaving The Game after five great seasons. I do love the show but I guess everyone has to move forward professionally and personally. The Game brought a lot of memorable moments for Tia's character, Melanie Barnett-Davis. The Game was a spin-off of Girlfriends, was cancelled, went into syndication and was relaunched by BET. It is a show that made history.

We saw Melanie grow from a college student into a wife, a stepmother and Sunbeam president. We saw her depressed, unsettled and lonely. Everyone was upset with Derwin for cheating on her and we were happy when they got married.

The Game has been enjoyable and it was nice to see one of the few remaining African-American sitcoms on television. Kudos to Tia for a great jon acting as Melanie - Ms. Boogey, Med School etc.

BET, you did not give a good closure to her leaving. She did not say goodbye to Tasha and there was no tearful departure from Derwin. I guess unforseen circumstances are the cause for this incomplete episode tonight but nevertheless, Tasha and Pookie kept us entertained.

All I can say is please let us not make this a show about Quan Kirkland because he is not in anything unless he's fighting with Derwin.

I have enjoyed my Derwin and Melanie drama from since the show started on CW. Thanks to all the writers and CW and BET for bringing us The Game.
