Haus of Vicious is not the only new series that will be airing on the BET family this August. “Carl Weber’s The Black Hamptons” is a brand new four-part original limited series from The New York Times best-selling book Carl Weber. Not just the series, but the cast of The Black Hamptons is one to look forward to.
The Black Hamptons, often known as Sag Harbor, is the setting for a new family story from the creators of the BET+ original drama “The Family Business.” This epic drama will chronicle the simmering war between the “Brittons” and the “Johnsons,” where the distinction between old and new money is quite obvious, from opulent communities to historic coastal retreats.
