TYLER PERRY'S 'MEET THE BROWNS' TV VERSION TO DEBUT IN JANUARY 20090; PICS OF SANAA LATHAN & TARAJI HENSON AT RED CARPET EVENT.

Wednesday nights on TBS may get a little bit more funny pretty soon. At the top of 2009, get ready to Meet the Browns for the third time via cable television. Nearly a year ago, I told you all a television version of Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns would soon find its way to the small screen once a network picked it up. Unsurprisingly, TBS, which airs Perry's House of Payne sitcom, has also snatched up Meet the Browns and will begin airing the first of ten episodes, which have already been filmed, next January. Of his highly anticipated series, Perry says, "I am so excited to continue my relationship with TBS. It has been so fulfilling artistically, I feel as if I've been adopted into another family. An artist such as myself cannot imagine being in a partnership with any other network." The film version of Meet the Browns starred Angela Bassett as a struggling single mom from Chicago who meets the family of her estranged late father in Atlanta and inherits a house. Actor David Mann will reprise his role from the movie as Leroy Brown, the head of the Georgia family.

The sitcom will kick off with Leroy inheriting the run-down house from his late father. Other cast members include Lamman Rucker (CLICK HERE to read more news on LAMMAN RUCKER on BLACKCELEBRITYMEN.BLOGSPOT.COM!), Denise Boutte. Of course Tyler will executive produce the series. And speaking of Tyler. His new movie The Family that Preys starring himself, Sanaa Lathan, Taraji Henson and Alfre Woodard will hit theaters next Wednesday. I was able to find a few pics of Sanaa and Taraji posing on the red carpet at the Verizon launch party for the Blackberry 8330 Pink Curve last week.
