The Entertainment of Life

Last season of the Hit The Floor was good! Hit The Floor was a breakout scripted series shown on Vh1. It was placed in a good spot on Vh1, coming on right after Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta. I was skeptical at first but after watching the show I was so excited and happy that a scripted series was so full of depth, mystery, and just flat out AWESOME!

If you're not familiar with the show it follows the dance team called the Devil Girls of a LA Basketball team called the Devils. Its centered around several characters lives but the main aspect of the show is centered around a young woman named Ahsa. She's the Devil Girls newest attraction. Her dancing skills are superior but she is a little naive. Her sweet, charming personality and her unmatched dance skills made her a prime target for the dance team captain, Jelena. Jelena is a devious, conniving woman whose only concern is making herself and anyone associated with her number 1. She is sneaky and extremely manipulative. Its clear from the very beginning that you should never trust Jelena or let her know any information that could be detrimental to you, she will use it against you. Just to give you a taste of some of the drama she's cultivated: Last season Jelena was drugging her boyfriend, when he found out he was about to propose. She also is the one who revealed to Ahsa that the Coach Davenport of the Devils and former basketball player was her FATHER! This reveal was seconds before Ahsa had to perform with the rest of the girls including Jelena. She also planted the seed that caused the rift between Jelena and her former boyfriend German. She's uber nasty and I LOVE IT! Jelena is an excellent villain!


Then you've got the owner of the team killing girls, one of the former players now turned executive raped a girl, the FBI has planted Ahsa's mom Sloan in the Devils organization (how ironic, right?) to become the director of the Devil Girls to find out information about the mysterious death of the former captain Mia and the dirty deeds of the teams executives. Ahsa's father is the team coach, Ahsa's best friend is sleeping with the coach, and Ahsa is sleeping with a teammate named Derek who is a coke head and the residential bad boy. I know its a lot to take in right? Drama, sex, lies, money, death, and the FBI! Makes for one helluva show though! With the all the reality shows filling up every network its nice to have a show that is scripted drama. Something you can indulge in and not feel ashamed. Cause these are REAL actors who are portraying characters. They don't have to defend themselves like reality stars do.

In season 2 they pretty much continue where they left off. Adding a few more issues to stir the pot i.e. NEW CHARACTERS! Like Coach Davenport's WIFE! HA! LOL Check out the preview for yourself!:
