Actress Mo’Nique, best known as Nikki Parker from the UPN network sitcom “The Parkers”, is currently taping episodes of “The Mo’Nique Show” at Turner’s TBS Studios in downtown Atlanta. Shot in front of a live studio audience, the show currently airs weeknights on BET (Viacom) at 11pm EST, 10pm Central. Tickets are available by request from the program’s official website (link to tickets).

For the show’s October 5th premiere Broadcasting & Cable reported an audience of 1.5 million viewers, over half of which represented the coveted 18 year old to 49 year old demographic. This strong interest in a late night television program, combined with the speculation that Mo’Nique might be in the running for an Academy Award for her work on the film “Precious”, are spinning Mo’Nique up as a hot property on the Hollywood Stock Exchange (HSX:MNIQU).

For an up-to-the-minute idea of who’s going to be on MoNique’s program just follow the show’s tweets over on Twitter (link to Mo’Nique Show’s Twitter page) or better yet, follow @FilmGeorgia/productiontweets as we add other productions who participate on Twitter.

We’re excited to have “The Mo’Nique Show” in production in Georgia and hope to play host for years to come!
