Last week Tyler Perry confirmed he was 100% onboard with the sale of BET after bowing out of the bidding process he referred to as disrespectful [click here if you missed that].
This week BET and Tyler announced the launch of new Tyler Perry centered FAST channels...
From Variety
Tyler Perry is steering into the FAST lane. The mega producer is launching multiple FAST (free, ad-supported television) channels as part of its ongoing relationship with BET.
Perry’s library of BET series will be scheduled on the new just-launched channels BET Tyler Perry Comedy and BET Tyler Perry Drama, marking the first time Perry’s BET series have been made available on FAST channels. The outlets are set to launch on FAST platforms including Roku, Pluto TV, Plex, TCL, Freevee and more to come.
The Perry BET library reps more than 600 hours of series, including “Tyler Perry’s Sistas,” “Tyler Perry’s The Oval,” “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne,” “Tyler Perry’s Ruthless,” “Tyler Perry’s Zatima,” “Tyler Perry’s Assisted Living” and “All the Queens Men.” The channels will launch with marathons of those shows, as well as best-of highlights and cast conversations.

When does this man sleep? Where does he find time to write and direct all this mediocrity??? Congrats though
Instead of purchasing BET and becoming an OWNER, he chose to be an EMPLOYEE. Hustling backwards!!
Good for him but a no for his TV /movie shows.

You sound silly and clearly have no idea about the intricacies of how television works. You just turn on the TV and watch but it's so much bigger than that. This isn't Walmart and he's not pushing a broom or scanning your groceries. Tyler is now making more money on licensing rights on all of his shows and movies, but he's also cashing in big time on those advertising dollars. He's already a billionaire but now he's about to triple that. That's not an employee, that's called a PARTNER!
Another hard pass.
Welp...at least he's keeping a lot of Black actors employed.

Tyler is not doing the Black community any favors by continuing to create c-rap. It teaches us to accept the lowest common denominator and to never develop enough critical thinking to distinguish between good and bad.
@ 1:27 Write him a letter and tell him all that.
Smart move
@1:27 And it deters us from telling our true stories. States are already passing laws to restrict our history in schools. Tyler Petty, Bravo and BET are here only to feed us garbage about ourselves.
Stay Gettin' That Bag. Must B That Atlanta In Him.
