Wanting again on Black tv this yr, we are able to truthfully say that our tradition put out some high quality exhibits each returning and debuting alike. Relating to the latter, one of many standouts in our eyes was with out query the collection premiere of G.R.I.T.S. on ALLBLK.
Following a stellar finale that aired final week, it was solely proper to get a better look into these “ladies raised in The South” to see what impressed the feminine camaraderie amongst main women Jasmine Sargent, Ashanti Harris and Aja Canyon.

The ladies of G.R.I.T.S. had been introduced collectively by the use of the present, but the relatability that you simply see on-screen between all three appears like age-old buddies with many years of reminiscences. We might see that even by way of the lens of a latest digital dialog by way of Zoom, and it was a heartwarming sight to see. It made for a stark distinction from the best way veteran actress Lela Rochon described her on-set expertise alongside Vivica A. Fox and Halle Berry whereas making the 1998 city cult traditional, Why Do Fools Fall in Love. In dialog with Lena Waithe for her Legacy Discuss collection on YouTube, Rochon described the general expertise as “tough” and, in her phrases, “a kind of issues that you simply respect later.” From the three-way competitors to painting late singer Zola Taylor, finally going to Berry, to a shocking authentic lineup that included Fox alternatively co-starring alongside Toni Braxton and Queen Latifah as an alternative, let’s simply say it wasn’t precisely “sister sunshine” round these trailers in in the slightest degree.
That doesn’t appear to be the case between Jasmine, Ashanti and Aja aka “Slimeroni.” All three women describe their time collectively whereas making this present as nothing wanting sisterly. Whether or not hanging out at one another’s trailers or recurrently hitching a experience collectively to the set, they quickly went from merely being besties on a present into changing into buddies in real-life.
Along with what’s happening this season, we additionally bought the women to offer their very own ideas on the place Keisha, Ty and Francis, respectively, every should be by Season 2 by way of character improvement. For those who’ve been maintaining with the present thus far, it’s clear that one other season is certainly wanted with out query and there’s greater than sufficient storylines to observe for the foreseeable future.
Briefly, we would like one other serving of G.R.I.T.S.!
