MTV’S “FROM G’S TO GENTS” RETURNS WHEN NETWORK GREENLIGHTS ANOTHER SEASON AIRING IN Q1
New York, NY (September 25, 2008) MTV, Cris Abrego from 51 Minds, and executive producer Jamie Foxx for FoxxKing Entertainment head back to the hood for another season of “From G’s to Gents”. Hosted by author, recording artist and arbiter of good taste, Fonzworth Bentley is ready to mentor a whole new group of Gs who all believe they have what it takes to shed their bad boy images and make life altering changes. Mr. Bentley will also be added to the producers’ team next season and says, “With casting already underway, my goal for this season is to really reach deeper into the G culture to find young men who society has discounted or cast aside, and give these men an opportunity to turn their lives around”. The network is scheduled to air 10 new episodes beginning in Q1.
The season one finale, which highlighted the Gs transformation and named Creepa as the ultimate “gentleman”, ranked #1 in its time period (Tuesday 10p-11p) among P12-34 across all of cable with over 3.9 million viewers. The season of “From G’s to Gents” reached over 50 million viewers (P2+) on MTV, with over 26 million from our P12-34 core.
