Love, Inc.: Dating consultant Denise Johnson (Shannon Doherty) and her co-workers help men and women sparkle themselves up in the hopes of attracting that perfect mate. But poor Denise just can't her own soulmate, no matter how hard she tries. Think Will Smith's Hitch but starring Shannon Doherty.
Sex, Lies, & Secrets: Denise Richards stars as Jolene, one of a "Friends"-type ensemble cast of characters trying to figure out their twenty-something lives in small town with big secrets. It's been described as The O.C. with a gangster element. Also starring Eric Balfour ("Six Feet Under"), and Lauren German ("The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"). Tuesdays, 9pm
South Beach shows up mid-season: J. Lo produces, and Marcus Coloma (Point Pleasant) and Chris Johnson (xXx: State of the Union) play along as they wander off to South Beach to discover obsess over lost loves and tangle with the seedy underworld of South Beach. Coming in fall.
Extra special addition will be the Vibe Awards, which show up this fall in order to "[celebrate] innovation, cutting-edge presentation and genre expanding work in urban music."
