BET Networks announced second season pickups for both its half-hour subversive, smart, serialized comedy series Boomerang, and the critically-acclaimed period drama based on the untold rise of the iconic music and dance program Soul Train, titled American Soul. BET is investing in partnerships with leading Black content creators with unique creative voices to bring viewers elevated storytelling and premium programming. Executive Produced by Emmy Award-winning actress, writer and creator Lena Waithe and Academy Award-winning actress, Halle Berry, Boomerang, is the #1 new cable scripted comedy for African Americans in the key 18-49 demo and AA2+*, and has been hailed as "emotionally searing" by The Hollywood Reporter. Produced by BET Networks and Paramount Television, the 10-episode series, picks up roughly twenty-five years after the iconic film, and centers on Simone Graham (daughter of Marcus Graham and Angela Lewis) and Bryson Broyer (son of Jaqueline Broyer), who are marketing professionals trying to step out of their parents' shadows. Boomerang airs Tuesdays at 10 PM ET/PT on BET, with its season finale bowing Tuesday, April 9 at 10 PM ET/PT.
