The UB Interview: Executive Producer Dijon Talton Talks ‘À La Carte’ Season 2 + Exclusive UB Preview

Executive Produced by Meagan Good, “À La Carte” returned for season two last month on ALLBLK.

Centering around the Black millennial dating experience, the 10-episode series continues tomorrow Thursday, November 2nd, with a new episode entitled “Special Delivery.”

Reign, Shyra, and Misha fix more than plates at a tailgate organized by Evette. This episode will also see the millennials deal with revenge porn. Check out a preview below and our new interview with executive producer Dijon Talton.

This season explores who Misha, Reign, and Shyra are as friends to each other without the friend that brought them all together: Mahogany. Her absence will serve as a catalyst for comedy and drama within this new friend dynamic.

In your mid-20’s, relationships of convenience are fickle, and in L.A. especially, they are not easy to sustain. The mistakes they make will bring them closer in some ways and push them further apart in others.

These three friends will continue their independent and collective journey discovering and unraveling who they are through the lens of comedy, love, sex, fire, and trial & error.

Series leads Kendall Kyndall and Jenna Nolen welcome newcomer Shani Marq who will assume the role of ‘Misha,’ while Kandi Burruss, Juan Gil and Xavier Avila return as series regulars.

The cast expanded this season with social media star India Love and musician Alex Jacke. Joining the cast as recurring characters are Romeo Miller, Tami Roman, Aspen Kennedy, Terayle Hill and Leon Fleisher. Tammy Rivera comes to spice up the season in an episode.

À La Carte is directed and Executive Produced by Dijon Talton and The Talton Company. Meagan Good Executive Produces alongside Co-Executive Producers Christopher O’Conner for Prodigi Arts Entertainment and Deonte Staats.
