BET has set a new four-part original limited series, Carl Weber’s The Black Hamptons, from The New York Times best-selling author of the same name and the executive producers of the popular BET+ original drama, The Family Business.

The show is a new family drama set in the quaint town of Sag Harbor, known as “The Black Hamptons,” in Long Island, NY. From luxury communities to historic beachfront enclaves, the story will follow the brewing feud between the ‘Brittons’ and the ‘Johnsons,’ where the difference between old and new money is very apparent. t. "Carl Weber's The Black Hamptons" not only features the glitz and gloss of the Black elite but also exposes the underbelly of wealth and prestige. With a mix of legacy families thriving for generations, friends, wannabes, and thirsty developers, drama can never be too far behind

The cast includes Lamman Rucker, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Elise Neal, Brian White, Karon Riley, Mike Merrill, Blac Chyna, Aaron Spears, Daya Vaidya, Cameo Sherrell, Franklin Ojeda Smith, Jordan Smith, Jennifer Freeman, and David Andrews. The series will make its BET debut in Summer 2022.







“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Tri Destined Studios and Urban Books Media on a new addictive limited series,” said Maureen Guthman, SVP, programming content strategy, BET. “BET’s ongoing commitment to telling compelling dramatic, character-driven original stories, anchored in the Black experience continues to propel our diverse storytelling to new heights.”

“We are honored and grateful to BET and Paramount Global for another opportunity to bring the rich culture, political power, generational wealth, intellect, and global influence of The Black Hamptons to our audience,” said Tri-Destined EP and showrunner Nikaya D. Brown Jones. “With all of the twist and turns of a Carl Weber novel, we share a glimpse into the world of affluent African American families owning companies, inventions, and miles of beachfront real estate and their influence on the world.”

“This may be the funnest project I’ve ever worked on. Every day is fun in the sun. I am very grateful to BET for seeing the vision,” said EP, writer and showrunner Carl Weber.

Trey Haley (The Family Business, Always A Bridesmaid The Man in 3B) will serve as director and co-executive producer for Tri Destined Studios. Grammy award-winning producer Rico Love serves as music supervisor.

Looks interesting and I love the plot and location. Sag Harbor is a beautiful place. The late B.Smith used to have a really nice restaurant with delicious food out there. I might have to watch this one!

Perhaps back in the day the lifestyles of the wealthy was a Mystery of sorts but rich people clout chase more than ever Today. Obscene wealth is on display everywhere in our faces 24/7 in America and the world.

Poorest people on the planet, and yet we’re flooded by the minute with this myth of black opulence.

So they're going to disregard all the regular ass capes, cottages and high ranches that most of the people lived in out there and have people living in imaginary mansions? Ok.

@Get These Nets I'm always surprised when I come in threads and see that you've tagged me. I don't get the notifications. I think when you go back and edit in a tag, the notification doesn't come up. You should just create a new post with the tag.

OWN did a documentary on Sag Harbor which is the real "Black Hamptons".

Folks should check it out to see the reality vs. "Hollywood" conceptions.
