NEW YORK, March 8 (UPI) -- BET Networks announced Friday it has renewed its semi-scripted comedy series "Real Husbands of Hollywood" for a second season.

The mockumentary-style program stars Kevin Hart, Nick Cannon, Boris Kodjoe, Duane Martin, J.B. Smoove and Robin Thicke.

Season 2 of the show will consist of 12 episodes.

"When we launched this series in January, we knew our audience would have as much fun watching it as we had making it, and since it has been on the air, fans have voiced on social media that they want more. So this was a pretty simple decision: 'Hey! Let's make more!'" Stephen Hill, BET's president of music programming and specials, said in a statement. "We are beyond thrilled that Kevin Hart and the stellar 'Husbands' will be back bickering and back-biting, for another season on BET."
