BET.com Slates First Web Series

NEW YORK: Buppies, a new web series that spotlights the lives of young African-American professionals living in Los Angeles, launches on BET.com on November 24 for a ten-week run. 

The webisodes chronicle the relationship dramas of a group of slightly dysfunctional but inseparable friends as they navigate the tricky terrain of L.A.’s young black power elite. The cast is led by Tatyana Ali as Quinci Allen (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Young and the Restless). Game Theory Films produced the series along with Ali and her sister Anastasia’s production company HazraH Entertainment. Ali serves as an executive producer of the series along with producers Aaliyah Williams and Anastasia Ali.

"We’re very excited to have this dynamic web series shown on BET.com," commented Denmark West, the president of BET Digital MediaGroup.  Buppies is a great extension of the existing content and overall digital platform, satisfying users on a whole new level. Additionally, Tatyana Ali is an amazing actress with undeniable talent. She brings a fresh, relatable element to our site, and we’re happy to work with her."
