OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network announced today that their freshman dating series,”The Never Ever Mets,” has been greenlit for a second season ahead of its season finale airing tonight, Friday, June 21st at 8/7c.

The show, hosted by actress and musician Ta’Rhonda Jones, quickly became a ratings smash, ranking as Friday night’s #1 original series on ad-supported cable in its time slot across all key African American demographics. Not only that, but it consistently grew its viewership throughout the season, reaching nearly 4 million total viewers on the OWN network to date.

“The Never Ever Mets’ impressive growth and its position as the top Friday night series among African American viewers clearly resonated with our audience,” said OWN President Tina Perry. “This strong reception validates the need to bring a second season to our fans.”

The series follows a unique concept: seven couples who have been dating virtually, some for months and others even for years, are brought together to live in the same house and navigate real-world challenges. With the help of Jones and a team of relationship experts, the couples participate in therapy sessions, bonding activities, and other exercises designed to test their virtual connections and see if their love can survive face-to-face encounters.

Tonight’s season finale promises a culmination of self-discovery and relationship insights for the remaining five couples.

“The Never Ever Mets” is produced by Bunim Murray Productions for OWN.
