"The Game" Is Back for Season 5! (BLOG)

The moment that all of you ardent The Game fans have been waiting for is finally here, and yes, the rumors are true! The Game is back for a fifth season on BET. Let's recap the Season Four cliffhangers to see what drama will continue to unfold this next season.

When we last saw Derwin and Melanie Davis, they were visiting a fertility specialist to find out why they couldn't seem to get a bun in the oven. The way that Melanie answered one of the doctors' questions led Derwin to believe that she'd had an abortion. Can they get over this new hurdle? Will they ever have a baby of their own?

Tasha Mack just found out that her supposedly terminally ill boyfriend Bo was just yanking her chain, hiding the fact that he had a wife and kids at home. When it rains it pours for Ms. Mack—Melanie also just fired her as Derwin's publicist. But you know what they say: You can never keep a good woman down. She's back in Malik's life full-time, and planning a comeback the likes of which San Diego has ever seen.

Malik Wright was just let go as the quarterback of the San Diego Sabers. While reeling from the news via live press conference, his ex-girlfriend shows up at his door high and in need of some TLC. Can he make a comeback? Is this his chance to make things right with Jenna?

Kelly and Jason Pitts have been separated for nearly two years now, but it's obvious that something is still there. Kelly had to take a bit of a sabbatical to find herself without the stigma of being the former Mrs. Pitts. Couples therapy may be in order for these two. Will they ever find their way back to each other?

Will The Game continue to be the pop-culture phenomenon that it has become in its fourth season? I'm sure. Visit BET.com/thegame for updates on the new season and exclusive photos, video and interviews.
