Tyler Perry’s BET Powerhouse Renewed for Season 10 — Premiere Date Revealed
BET doubles down on Tyler Perry’s Sistas, renewing the hit drama for Season 10 and locking in a January 2026 debut as buzz builds ahead of the Season 9 finale.
BET is not hitting pause on Tyler Perry's flagship drama. 'Sistas' is officially back for Season 10, and yes, they already stamped a date on it. The network is clearly feeling good about this one.
What BET just locked in
Season 10 of 'Tyler Perry's Sistas' is happening, and it premieres Wednesday, January 7, 2026. Episodes will roll out weekly in the show's usual Wednesday primetime spot on BET. The renewal lands ahead of the Season 9 finale, which tells you how confident the network is about where this story is headed.
'BET proudly announces the return of Tyler Perry's Sistas for its 10th groundbreaking season, premiering Wednesday, January 7, 2026. The series continues its record-breaking success, tracking to be the #1 scripted series on cable among Black adults 18-49 for five consecutive years and the #1 series on cable among all Black viewers for three consecutive years.'
'Season 10 promises the laughter, love, and layered drama that have made Sistas a cultural phenomenon.'
Why the early call
Since launching in 2019, 'Sistas' has been a steady ratings machine for BET, consistently ranking among the top cable dramas with Black audiences. Announcing a 2026 premiere before Season 9 even signs off is a pretty loud signal: the numbers are doing what they need to do, and the network wants to keep the momentum going.
What the show is (and where Season 10 likely heads)
Created, written, and directed by Tyler Perry, the hour-long series follows a tight circle of single Black women in Atlanta juggling careers, relationships, and all the messiness that comes with modern dating, friendships, and social media. Season 10 is expected to pick up right where Season 9 leaves things dangling, so brace for immediate fallout when it returns.
