The network features long form, in-depth celebrity interviews, smart commentary and discussion as well as news and inside information.  The network was created by producer Keven Undergaro. Black Hollywood Live had guests from shows/films like 12 Years A Slave, The Butler, America's Got Talent, The Game, Chicago Fire, Believe, Hannibal, Suits, Parks and Recreation, Dallas Buyers Club, Real Husbands of Hollywood, The Best Man Holiday, The View, Shameless, Basketball Wives, Being Mary Jane, Scandal, Single Ladies and many more.  Notable guests on the network include: host Wayne Brady, The View's Sherri Shepherd, Late Night's Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyer and others.

The series is a hilarious comedy that follows Cassie (Linara Washington), Holly (Sienna Goines), and Sharice (Apryl Jones) who are three talented actors who can't catch their big break. Feeling “played” by Hollywood, the women clap back and recruit their casting director friend Mabel (Ella Joyce) to put out a fake casting call for a “black female Western” film. What began as a publicity stunt meant to up their social media clout ends up giving them a bit more than they auditioned for.
