If you hadn't guessed from the title, this episode of The Game plays the race card. Unfortunately, that's not a good move.

There's still plenty of bad blood between Mel and Tasha, which spills out during planning for the Saber Sunbeam fashion show. Tasha has recruited NeNe Leakes and Mel is not impressed. One of the other Sunbeams (who happens to be white) tries to get Tasha replaced as head of the fashion show. This is all another setup for another fight between Mel and

Likewise, Derwin and Malik are still tetchy with one another, so Derwin starts chatting with new QB Quan Kirkland (Ch...

This week in TV on DVD, we look at new seasons for two cult favorites: the BBC's Doctor Who: The Complete Sixth Series and CBS DVD's The Game: The Fourth Season.

Doctor Who: The Complete Sixth Series (BBC Home Entertainment)

The Show: Matt Smith's edition of Doctor Who has endeared itself to fans and critics alike. Smith's second full series in the TARDIS is full of energy - and incredibly complicated, as we learn the truth of River Song's (Alex Kingston) true identity and wonder about The Doctor's final fate.

When Who is good, it's really good. The opening two-parter ("The Impossi...

We've come to the end of the season that fans built: the season four finale of The Game. For a variety of reasons, I feel like the fans deserved better.

Let's get to the action:

Melanie & Derwin

If you missed last week's episode, Melanie really, really wants a baby. She's frustrated that she's not pregnant by now, which leads her to such interesting thoughts as wondering if the microwave irradiated her ovaries. (I can't answer that, but I can say that if you put Christmas lights in the microwave, fun things happen.) The two visit a doctor for help, and that's where we learn that Mel...

The Game set up plenty of intriguing storylines last week; it paid them off this week. In a season that's been mired in drama, there might not be laughs this week, but there is a pleasant reminder that these characters are still the people we fell in love with, beginning with...

Kelly & Jason

Kelly is venting into the camera about her marriage to Jason when the object of her irritation shows up, looking smart and with their smart-mouthed child in tow. Kelly may not be civil with her ex-husband, but she's all too happy to cash his check. Unfortunately for her, this time she's not g...

The drama hit an all-new high in last week's episode of The Game, so now what?

More drama, of course! Beginning with everyone's favorite spoiled star quarterback, who reveals...well, what I've been suspecting all along.

Malik, Derwin & Jason

Still in rehab, Malik is not enjoying group therapy (as if we expected he would?), while he continues to deny that he has any sort of problem whatsoever. "Were you a jackass before the drugs?" one of his fellow patients inquires, but he brushes it off. Later that night, he tries to hit on Jenna, a supermodel also in residence. He tells her, "I...

The title of this week's The Game is fitting: last week, everything was at least salvageable, until Malik had to go and get himself arrested. Apparently, he didn't pay attention to those anti-drunk driving PSA's. Or get the memo about not picking fights with cops. As a result, he got to go directly to jail. I've watched a lot of episodes of Jail, and that is not someplace I ever want to visit.

Tasha is quite unhappy that her son has been arrested. Derwin doesn't look too surprised. Even Jason knows this is a Big Deal, and walks out on his date (although he leaves her with the check...

I knew the numbers for the return of BET's The Game would be good. I did not anticipate that they would be making history.

The network has put out a press release telling us that the show's 7.7 million debut made it "the number one ad-supported sitcom telecast in cable TV history" and "number two telecast in BET history." Not only that, but the release says the hour outperformed all of the sitcom's earlier airings on both broadcast and cable - as if to say, "Take that, CW." Certainly that network is having second thoughts today about axing the series.

As if that wasn't enough, most ...

It is my pleasure to report that The Game is back and it's as if the show never left.

There's a new look for the characters, and a little thing called a two-year time jump that we were told about in December, but excepting those two things, this is the show fans loved and fought for. I had a chance to take in the season four premiere (entitled "Parachutes...Beach Chairs") at a sneak preview screening in Los Angeles Thursday night, and I'll say that I cheered, I laughed and yes, I even got choked up a little.

Here's the dish: since it's been some time, there have been some pretty ser...

Keenen Ivory Wayans and a nearly naked Brittany Daniel were spotted outside Mr. Chow's following a post-BET party on Sunday. You can nearly see Brittany's pelvic bone and rear end in that barely-there dress.

Wayans is currently planning "White Chicks 2," so be sure to be on the lookout for that one.

Along with twin sister Cynthia, blonde beauty Brittany got her break through her role in the high school TV comedy drama "Sweet Valley High." She has also appeared on TV shows "Dawson's Creek" and "The Game" and in the films "Joe Dirt" and "Broken Lizard's Club Dread."

The CW Network has picked up the back nine episodes of freshman comedy "The Game" and returning drama 7th Heaven, giving each series a full season order, it was announced today by Dawn Ostroff, President of Entertainment, The CW.

"The Game" centers on the lives and relationships among NFL wives, girlfriends and mom/managers who use their best "game" to help their men stay on the field and on their arm. The series stars Tia Mowry, Coby Bell, Pooch Hall, Hosea Chanchez, Brittany Daniel and Wendy Raquel Robinson.

In Everybody Hates Chris (7 p.m. CW), Rochelle decides to host a neighborhood watch meeting after Julius' truck is stolen, but her good intentions quickly turn competitive when her new neighbor, Louise (guest star Whoopi Goldberg), thinks she'd make a better block captain than Rochelle.

Meanwhile, Chris sets out to break his streak of bad luck with the ladies by asking out a new girl in the neighborhood, Yvette (guest star Cherelle Noyd). In sharp contrast to his older brother, Drew volunteers to be a crossing guard and can't keep the girls away, causing a major traffic problem.
