BET ‘ The Game’ Creates A New Melanie and Derwin!!

Now that both TIA MOWRY and POOCH HALL have left the game, the characters ‘Melanie an Derwin’ will obviously “disappear” from the show.

With BET’s efforts to retain their viewers, they have decided instead of looking for two new actors to fill MOWERY and HALL’s shoes as Melanie and Derwin, they will write in to different character who follow similar storylines.

Fans of The Game know that last season ended with Melanie and Derwin taking a trip to Baltimore so that Melanie could pursue her residency at Johns Hopkins. Instead of returning with two new faces BET has decided to introduce ‘Kiera and Byrce.’

Kiera 20-year-old former child star who has been in the spotlight since she was five years old and starring on a “Cosby” style sitcom, will fall in love with a Bryce “The Blueprint” Westbook – a #1, Ivy League draft pick running back who breaks every “dumb athlete” stereotype.

We’re not sure if every fans will buy into the sudden switch up, but it’s worth a shot.

Tell us, do you think this is a good idea for the show?

    NO!!! this will NOT be a good idea for the show WHY? the sudden change on the ACTORS; I mean we as the viewers love watching the characters that’s been on throught the past 5 seasons I mean do any the PRODUCERS care about us  as the viewers adapting to new faces and AND ACTORS!!!

    Nope I don’t wanna see anyone trying to fill the roles of Derwin and Melanie. Tia Mowery and Pooch Hall need to come back because the show will not be the same without them. Girl Melanie and Ding Dong… The producers have lost their minds taking them from the cast. Not a good move!

    I really don’t think it will be the same…I hated it whenever Kelly left the show. Now Mel and Derwin leaving I really don’t think this new guy can take the place of Derwin. I almost cried watching Derwin leaving the show tonite bc I been watching this show for so long now I hate to see him go:-( but I do understand he have other projects but dang I love watching him and Mel too.
