Meet “All The Single Ladies” From OWN New Series

Next year, OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network will debut its new unscripted series “All The Single Ladies,” a provocative view of intimacy and dating in the modern world from the perspective of Black women across the nation.

The series will debut on Friday, January 6 at 9 pm ET/PT, with new episodes, debuting every Friday night concurrently on both OWN and discovery+.

Each episode will feature four Black women of various ages and relationship statuses sitting down to explore a different topic. The conversations will sometimes be comedic, and other times will be heartbreaking, but they will always be real, authentic, and heartfelt, with the common goal of finding and wanting love. Episode topics below:  

• “Side Chicks” – January 6 @ 9 pm ET/PT – Imagine being pregnant and newly married, only to find out the father of your child has been cheating.
