Overall Thoughts of the show so far


From following the show since season 2, the show has changed a lot. The show use to be aired on the CW network where the characters made more money, now its aired on BET and it’s not the same. The characters’ personalities are no longer the same. To me, the show has lost flavor. The director has tried to put too many things going on in one episode. I find that the storyline is all over the place between the different characters. The characters are now in different stages of their lives. Derwin and Melanie are now married and Melanie is a doctor and president of the Sunbeams. Derwin is now the famous football player. Janay now has Derwin’s child which is named DJ (Derwin Jr). Malik is in rehab and dating a supermodel. Tasha is dating Donte a much younger man. Kelly and Jason are now divorced and Kelly is out of the picture because she realizes she needs help.


How has each character changed and developed?

Malik’s : this season as a whole has changed from being all about himself to actually caring about other people. His attitude has changed since has gone to rehab, it’s as if he has a new lease on life. He now views things from a different point of view.

Derwin and Melanie: are learning to live as a married couple along with coping with the fact that Derwin is the father of Janay’s baby. Melanie is also dealing with not having a actually career and just being a stay at home wife.

Tasha and Donte: Tasha is in denial and trying to come to terms with the fact that Donte is much younger than her, and the fact that Donte wants to date her and make it official in public.

Kelly and Jason: Now that Jason and Kelly are divorced, Jason is co-hosting the show ‘benched’ and living life. While Kelly is busy making her own reality show, and trying to be in the spot light. It seems as though she is craving attention since she no longer has fame as when she was the head of the sunbeam girls group.

Overall I think this season is proving to be more dramatic and life changing for all the characters in the show.  I just hope that when they decide to write the next season, it is actually an hour long or try not to put so much in 30mins.
