When Tales are better left Untold - Queen Sugar's Season 4 Premiere


By now you've all caught up with the first episode of Season 4 of "Queen Sugar" on OWN TV.

I caught up this weekend.

Wow.

Talk about telling tales out of school, with the release of Nova' upcoming novel, "Blessings and Blood," it seems there is about to be more blood spilled than blessings realized.

If you watch the show, you know that Nova Bordelon (played by Retina Wesley) almost never apologizes for anything she does. She's definitely a "free spirit," but in the latest episode we see more of her self-righteous side than we've seen before.

I've always thought her character loves her family more than anything, which is why I don't see how she possibly thought that airing all of the Bordelon's "dirty laundry" was a good idea.  

In my opinion, it's not even good to tell all of your own secrets.  Especially, when other people are hurt by your truth.

In the case of Nova's novel, it's not even her truths that are causing the damage.  They aren't even her truths to tell.

One thing is certain, this has started off to be a nail-biter of a season.

Stay tuned.  

Pour yourself a cup of coffee and chicory and have a beignet or two standing by.  It's getting good.
