Who remembers "Braxton Family Values"?

The reality television show, which ran for seven seasons and gave fans an intimate look at the highs and lows of the Braxton sisters, was full of drama, laughter and unforgettable family moments.

Fans of this show will be thrilled to know that the famous siblings are back and ready to bring even more family drama to your screens.

They are making a triumphant return to television on August 9 as they navigate a new set of challenges in their upcoming reality series, "The Braxtons".

We TV initially announced in February that Toni, Towanda, Trina, Tamar, and the indomitable matriarch Dr. Evelyn Braxton were reuniting for the new show.

More than three years after their original docu-series came to an end, the ladies are ready to share their lives once again.

The show will be available exclusively on We TV and streaming on ALLBLK. It is not yet known when it will be available in South Africa.

According to a press release quoted by “People,” viewers can now expect to see them deal with "new love, success, heartbreak, ongoing family dynamics and so much more," in the new show.

One significant change is the absence of their late sister, Traci, who passed away at the age of 50 in March 2022. The family acknowledged that things will "never be the same" without her, but they are determined to honour her memory.

This season also promises some unexpected twists. This includes renowned R&B singer Toni taking a stab at stand-up comedy.

But her mother and sisters are less than thrilled, thinking she should "stick to singing."

Meanwhile, Trina is ready to be a grandma and is pressuring her children to start families. However, her husband, Von Scales, drops a bombshell by revealing that he encouraged their children "to get vasectomies" if they didn't want kids.

In addition, Mama Evelyn is looking as good as ever and finds herself diving into the dating pool.

Fans are excited to see the Braxtons back on their screens.

“So, I understand the missing link. miss you sissy. Can't wait to watch this show .”

@RayFamilyreality added: “I love this family but it’s the fact that they were livid with my favourite Tray Ray for filming and now after her death they are filming. Weird shit, but I’m gonna watch just to see how Traci is remembered. Rest beautifully Traci.”
