Centric Revives VH1’s Recently Canceled Single Ladies
In late February, VH1 announced the cancellation of the fan favorite romantic dramedy series Single Ladies. Single Ladies was VH1’s first hour-long scripted series.
We’ve been proud to deliver three seasons of the drama, romance and style that engaged viewers in each episode of Single Ladies. Although we’ve decided not to move forward with another season, we hope to work again with the talented cast, creatives and producers as well as our partners at Flavor Unit Entertainment in the near future. We also thank the show’s fans for their support since the premiere in 2011.
Fans of Keisha, April and Raquel can rejoice! Less than two months later, the BET-owned network Centric has picked it up for a fourth season. The renewal is part of a new deal inked between the network and Queen Latifah’s Flavor Unit Entertainment, which produces Single Ladies.

The Simpsons Predicted a Broncos vs. Seahawks Super Bowl in 2005
Apparently the folks in Springfield on FOX’s The Simpsons can see the future. The show’s official Twitter account shared an image from the 2005 episode “Bonfire of the Manatees” that shows Homer Simpson watching the Super Bowl.
In that episode, the two teams playing in the Super Bowl are the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos. Nine years later… they are facing off at Super Bowel 2014!
The real test as to whether or not The Simpsons can see the feature is if the final score ends up coming true. On the animated series, the Broncos won with 19 points to the Seahawks’ 14.
