  3. I love The Game and am so happy it is back and in full force. The storylines are awesome! For me, however, the jury is still out on Let’s Stay Together. I have watched each week hoping for better storylines/writing but nothing has changed. I love the fact that the characters are not stereotypical and they are doing well in their careers, but Tasha and Jamal should be the couple teetering on getting married and Charles and Stacy should have been the married couple with the twins–invisible twins at that! We haven’t seen them and Tasha looks like she just came from a photo shoot each week. Nobody with kids, especially twins, dresses and looks like that every week. It’s not realistic. The only believable and relatable characters on the show are Kita and Charles. I will continue to check it out, but right now it needs some tweeking!
