Rumors have been swirling around for a few days now that after 2 seasons 'The Mo'Nique Show' has been AXED! Although no official word from the network has been given about the status of the show, some sources are saying that the show is a wrap.
Rodney Ho of The Atlanta Journal Constitution has been following the story and has found out some interesting news about the show.
[UPDATE: At 3:40 p.m., I received an email from a spokesperson at BET which included a slightly milder euphemism: "The Mo'Nique Show will be on production hiatus beginning in the fall." ... Mo'Nique Hicks and The Mo'Nique Show are important to the BET Networks family and we look forward to continuing our relationship our with her."]
The Atlanta-based show used to tape at the Turner Studios. But at present that studio is being used until October to tape another BET show, according to Ho. If the show was indeed coming back for the fall, then taping would begin by August. August is almost here, and there is no word yet. So it's pretty safe to say, that the 'indefinite hiatus' status really means, the show is done.
Ratings don't appear to be the reason for the cancellation. 'The Mo'Nique Show is/was one of the highest rated shows on BET. Sources are saying that there were conflicts between BET management and Mo’Nique.
