The series was canceled in May 2009 after three seasons.[1] Viacom's BET Networks would strike a deal with CBS Corporation to develop new episodes of the series, relocating taping of the show from Los Angeles to Atlanta, and announcing its renewal at the April 2010 upfronts. New seasons began airing on BET starting January 11, 2011, with the fourth season premiere drawing 7.7 million viewers, making it the most watched sitcom premiere in cable television history.[2] The show would air for six seasons on BET, being renewed for its final two in 2014, and concluding its run on August 5, 2015.[3][4]
