Summer fun is coming to OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network with the series premiere of the new Evelyn Lozada docu-series "Livin' Lozada" on Saturday, July 11 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, followed by the return of the popular OWN docu-series "Flex & Shanice" at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
"Livin' Lozada" follows the lives of Evelyn Lozada, of "Basketball Wives" fame, and her 21-year-old daughter Shaniece.
Evelyn has moved on from the heartache of her highly publicized divorce
in a big way. She is engaged to big league baseball player Carl
Crawford and the happy couple have a one-year-old son, Leo. Between
learning to be a mom all over again, setting up a new home in Los
Angeles for her and her family, working on getting the sequel to her
first book published, as well as dealing with issues surrounding her
family back East...Evelyn has a lot going on!
Not
to be outdone, her daughter Shaniece, has a blossoming modeling career
and is working on starting her own bikini line, looking to her mom for
advice which she (sometimes) takes. Each episode is filled with close
friends and relatives in the ladies' lives who help round out a world
filled with laughter, support and encouragement as we follow Shaniece
carving out the new life before her and Evelyn moving on from her past
and embracing the new life she has found.
The series is produced by Shed Media (part of the unscripted/alternative television department at Warner Bros.), with Pam Healey, John Hesling, Lisa Shannon, Russ Heldt and Evelyn Lozada as executive producers.

"Flex & Shanice" follows the lives of husband and wife duo, actor Flex Alexander ("One on One"), Grammy-nominated singer Shanice
("I Love Your Smile") and their extended family all living together
under one roof. From the outside looking in, Flex and Shanice are living
the dream - they are beautiful celebrities with a long-standing
marriage, gorgeous kids and a lovely home in suburbia. But what this
fairytale couple has been hiding from the world is that they have
been struggling financially for the past five years, so they moved their
hilarious extended family in to help make ends meet.
As
the couple often says, "We're not where we want to be, but we're not
where we used to be," and viewers will see just that in the second
season. But nine people under one roof can add just as much stress as it
relieves. And while Flex builds on his acting and stand-up careers with
the release of his graphic novel, Shanice hustles to convince a
Grammy-nominated producer to EP her new album while raising two
precocious kids. This family is just trying to hold it together for long
enough to capture that one big break that could turn their luck
around.
"Flex & Shanice" is produced by Lynch-Dyson Entertainment. Executive producers are Jeff Dyson, Vernon Lynch, Julie Pizzi and Patty Ivins.
