Get ready for your new favorite series. ALLBLK has dropped the trailer for their new show, À La Carte, a scripted millennial dating series from executive producers Meagan Good and Dijon Talton.
The new dramedy series comes from the mind of Breanna Hogan, centering around the experience of the Black millennials in the dating world. The story follows explicitly one girl’s “journey to the place she never thought she’d end up – on the side.”
The series, which is described as a mix of Insecure, Girlfriends, and Sex and the City, was first announced in November 2021. In a statement obtained by Deadline, Brett Dismuke, general manager of AllBlk & WEtv shared in a statement, “Tales of the dating scene today are ripe for great storytelling, and the plot of À La Carte is a tale that is sure to ignite passionate conversations and fiery debates among friend circles everywhere.”
The fiery new trailer for the series makes good on this promise, with one Mahogany Rose (played by Pauline Dyer) asking, “When are men gonna realize we are the table, and stop asking, ‘what do we bring to it?'”
The clip then teases plenty of steamy and dramatic clips within the friend group. Towards the end of the super-tease, Rose asks, “Why can’t I have love and a good time?”
The main cast is Dyer, Courtney Burrell (Kaleb Myles), Jessie Woo (Misha Taylor), Kendall Kyndall (Reign Moore) and Jenna Nolen (Shyra Clemons). In addition, the series boasts an impressive supporting cast, including The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Kandi Burruss, Robinne Lee (Being Mary Jane), singer Kelly Price, Dorien Wilson (The Parkers), Nazanin Mandi (Twenties), Daniel Augustin (How I Met Your Father), Mike Merrill (All American), Juan Gil (A Second Thought), and Xavier Avila (Pretty Dudes).
À La Carte drops May 12 on ALLBLK.
