“Queen Sugar” debuted its second season on OWN (June 20) with its highest-rated episode ever in key adult and female demos. Year to date, “Queen Sugar” is one of the Top 5 original scripted series on ad-supported cable in W25-54 in Live+3. It is Wednesday night’s #2 original scripted cable series for W25-54 and one of the Top 4 original scripted cable series for African-American women and total viewers. The series is averaging over 2.3 million total viewers in Live+3 and is consistently one of the most talked-about shows on social media.

In the upcoming episodes of the series, Charley (Dawn-Lyen Gardner, “Unforgettable”) receives an unexpected visit from her mother (Sharon Lawrence, “NYPD Blue”) and the two finally have a revealing heart-to-heart about Charley’s upbringing. Darla (Bianca Lawson, “Rogue”), takes a huge step in mending her family estrangement by reaching out to share the news of her engagement to Ralph Angel (Kofi Siriboe, “Girls Trip”). Meanwhile, Aunt Violet’s (Tina Lifford, “Parenthood”) condition worsens, and Micah (Nicholas L. Ashe, “Are We There Yet?) finally comes to terms with his emotions surrounding his traumatic encounter with a police officer. Plus, Nova’s (Rutina Wesley, “True Blood”) Zika story causes great concern in the community.
