BBWLA Cancelled? VH1 Gives an Update

“Basketball Wives Miami” is pretty much done, so it appears VH1 is hoping to hold on to “Basketball Wives LA” as long as possible.

So the network has announced BBWLA has been renewed for a new season, even though Draya is no longer on board for now.

Here’s a snippet of the official press release:

VH1 is taking no timeouts with “Basketball Wives: LA.” The network announced the hit reality series is picked up for a fifth season.

The fourth season of “Basketball Wives: LA” has made VH1 the #1 cable network on average in the Sunday 9PM time period with Women 18-34.* In addition, the 9PM premiere episodes have posted triple digit gains with the demo versus year ago levels* (+157%).

“Basketball Wives: LA” season four was explosive. Draya Michele, Malaysia Pargo, Brandi Maxiell, and Jackie Christie returned to the court ready for drama. And Queen Bee and Executive Producer, Shaunie O’Neal, joined the LA crew this season to try to keep the peace. Jackie brought in friend and basketball girlfriend, Mehgan James. Also joining the clique was wife of player Eddy Curry and Malaysia’s friend, Patrice Curry, as well as Draya’s friend, fashion designer and ex- girlfriend of Tyreke Evens, Angel Brinks. Between the new personalities, major life challenges, and old resentments, even Shaunie soon realized that the LA ladies are a very challenging group. When her old time East coast buddy, Tami Roman, joined the cast, the Basketball Wives: Miami / LA cast divide was set in stone. Don’t miss the fourth season finale on Sunday, October 4th at 9PM ET/PT and catch up with ladies on the Reunion Special on Sunday, October 11th at 9PM ET/PT.

  1. No I won’t be watching. It’s dry and has been for a good minute now. I’m sorry but Mona came and killed off everyone else. The only thing I watch besides all the L&HH is Black Ink. Mona changed the game.

    1. Mona may end up burning out too because how many spinoffs does one really need? It gets to be too much eventually and people get bored.

  2. I didn’t think they would cancel it either but I think they will revamp it and add new people. It’s about time too.

    1. Her shows have ran thror course. Hang it up lady. It’s all the same crazy shenanigans. I stopped watching it about 2yrs ago. And so should everyone else. Garbage tv is what Mona does best.

  3. Well it’s a business at the end of the day and all VH1 really has right now is reality shows. They lost one and can’t really afford to lose the other.

  4. For the most part, the season has been bland. It was cool at first but now it’s like watching paint dry. I don’t want to say it’s because Draya is gone but something is definitely missing.

  5. How are they still on?? I don’t even watch……and haven’t in a long time…..but from hearing and reading about it. It sounds lame. Only 2 bishes on there is married. Need to call it “Boring, Lies and Drama”

  6. One pony don’t stop no show… Or so I’ve heard. Drama has never been a fan of mine anyway. Malaysia and Brandi get together like the Mean Girls, Jackie a-s cray… I mean the show has gotten a bit boring but I’m sure if they bring on new talent That will probably give the show some life.
    Tami seems to only to have come to start ish. Since she been there all I’ve seen her do is run and tell what she heard. So I guess she is doing what she is paid for.
