Those who might be missing FOX's Empire might find a new TV guilty pleasure here. This is the story of a female rap group called Nasty B**ches, who were the hottest thing on MTV back in 1999. The girls have decided to reunite in order to perform on the BET Awards. Brianna (Eve) is now married with five kids and dealing with the fact that her husband is simultaneously cheating on her and dying of cancer; Jill (Naturi Naughton) is a preacher's daughter who is married but cheating on her husband with a woman; Naomi (Brandy Norwood) is trying to revive her career going country while trying to make a relationship with her daughter work, who hates her and lives with her mother; Butter Pecan (Nadine Velasquez) is awaiting unfinished vengeance coming from the girls from 1999 while having been fired from her job as a daytime talk show hostess accused of poisoning her co-anchor. The show is a little busy, plotwise, but if they could trim the storyline fat a little, this could be a whole lot of fun. I haven't seen Eve since her standout role in The Woodmen and haven't seen Brandy since Moesha went off the air, but these two are killing it. Also loved Naughton, who was the best thing about the 2008 remake of Fame. I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye on this one, if they keep up the quality of the pilot, this could be seriously fun.
