Almost two years after the CW dropped it, The Game has found new life Tuesdays on BET-only now the sitcom about football players and their sexy, shrewd women is a hit. Wendy Raquel Robinson (left, with Tia Mowry) remains the flashy standout. I like how the show shifts from sitcom laughs to soap-opera tremors.
