Tyrese Gibson and Rev Run are coming to a television screen near you with a brand new talk show so get ready!
On Thursday, the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) announced a new primetime talk show that the “Man-ology” authors and longtime friends Gibson and Rev Run, real name Joseph Ward Simmons, will be bringing about men and love.
The show is developed and produced by CBS Television Distribution and will be an eight episode weekly series debuting in early 2016.
In a statement from OWN president Sheri Salata, she said, “When Rev Run, Tyrese and CBS came to us with the idea of a primetime series we were energized by the chance to bring OWN viewers something fresh and entertainingly real in the ‘love space.’ We can’t wait to turn them loose – enlightening us all about what makes men tick.”
Scott Koondel, executive vice president and chief licensing officer for CBS Corp, said this about the partnership with all those involved. “We are thrilled to be in business with OWN on our first original production for the network. Combining the enormous popularity of Tyrese and Rev Run with engaging topics like love and relationships will make a very entertaining hour for viewers.”
The untitled show will bring “two unorthodox love and relationship experts” together in front of a primetime studio audience along with celebrity guests to have a “no-holds-barred relationship throw down.” In the age of social media, many platforms will be incorporated with the show to ask the hosts intimate questions “about men, relationships, marriage and sex.”
