(August 11, 2009) - TV One has provided details of its new reality show following LisaRaye McCoy, who came to Los Angeles from her native Chicago more than a decade ago and launched her career in Ice Cube's underground hit film The Players Club.
After announcing its existence last week at the summer meeting of the Television Critics Association in Pasadena, Calif., the network has revealed that cameras will follow McCoy as she attempts to mount an acting comeback while balancing a roller-coaster personal life.
The half-hour show's eight episodes will be shot in both Los Angeles and the island of Turks and Caicos, where she served as first lady during her rocky marriage to former Premier Michael Misick.
McCoy will be shown focusing on her acting career, helping her 19-year-old daughter Kai transition into adulthood; keeping her incarcerated sister, Da Brat, in line; taking care of her ailing mother and trying to maintain a love life.
