Tyler Perry’s The Oval Season 5, the popular political drama series will be released on the 17th of October, 2023, on BET.
Fans are sure in for a treat as the season will continue the gripping tale of a seemingly innocuous interracial first family of the United States, who have some wild shenanigans going on at the White House. Their domestic and official staff are also not left out of the whole brouhaha. Upon its initial release, The Oval was billed as a supercharged version of the political drama genre, and it has more than lived up to it.
When Does The Oval Come Back On?
The Oval will return to TV screens, specifically BET, on the 17th of October, 2023. What fans will be seeing is the 5th season of the series. Recall that Season 1 of The Oval premiered on the 23rd of October 2019 and aired a total of 25 episodes.
The show’s convoluted storyline, featuring off-the-charts levels of scandal, sex, depravity, and betrayal, quickly made it a fan favorite, and as such, it was consistently renewed over the years.
