Now that BET has settled the lawsuit Gabrielle Union filed surrounding the show, the network has released a first look at the season four premiere.
In the episode, Mary Jane finds out her new job isn’t what she thought it would be.
Entertainment Tonight writes:
Only ET has an exclusive first look at the series’ all-new season, as Mary Jane’s dreams of becoming a national lead anchor are dashed by Great Day USA’s veteran anchor, Ronda Sales (Valarie Pettiford).
“I like you, Mary Jane, I do. That is why I’m going to be frank. Garrett (Ashton Holmes) has no intention of making you co-anchor,” Ronda tells Mary Jane during a private meeting in her office.
“Excuse me?” a shocked Mary Jane asks.
“I know it probably seems that he is, given what transpired at Metagiates. It was Metagiates, wasn’t it? Oh, of course it was,” Ronda replies. “Garrett’s favorite booth in the back, against the wall? A bottle of pinot, dessert? In fact, I fear the seduction started weeks ago when you were being interviewed, and undoubtedly he led you to believe that you were being groomed for my spot.”
“He alluded to that, yeah.” Mary Jane confirms.
“And now, he makes it seem that my departure is imminent,” Ronda says.
“So, why am I being led to believe that I have a future here, if I don’t?” Mary Jane presses.
Watch the clip above to see what Rhonda has to say.
Check out the preview below:
“Being Mary Jane” returns tonight on BET at 10 p.m. ET/9 p.m. CT, because of President Obama’s final speech.
I didn’t even know this was coming back tonight.
Last season was very good. I hope this season won’t be a letdown.
So are they going to tell us what happened with Niecy and that police officer?
I hope so. I’ll be mad if they don’t.
Yes! Thanks for the reminder UB!
I’m ready.
Boring episode.
I’m a little nervous about this season. I know they have a new show runner but the show feels too different now. I don’t like the fact that she left Atlanta. That was a great setting for the show because we got to see her interaction with her family and the black experience in Atlanta can’t really be topped. I hope the season gets better but I doubt it will.
I was very disappointed at how they glamorized MJ having a one night stand. I think it’s so inappropriate to make it seem like it’s ok to be intimate with a random stranger. OMG! This is truly Satan’s world.. nothing is off limits today. Smh ??♀️
