A spin-off of the record breaking series "Bad Girls Club," "Love Games: Bad Girls Need Love Too" features three former Bad Girls -- Amber (season three), Kendra (season four) and Sarah (season three) vying for the man of their dreams from a pool of 13 eligible bachelors. Each week the ladies, have the group of bachelors competing for their attention in a series of off-the-wall challenges and entertaining group dates. Amber, Kendra and Sarah must try to put their bad aside in an attempt to work together to narrow the field and identify the guy that's most ideal for them. The men that don't catch their eye and win their heart are eliminated weekly. Comedian Bret Ernst ("Wild West Comedy Show") hosts the eight one-hour episode series.

"Love Games" is produced by Bunim-Murray productions with Jonathan Murray, Gil Goldschein, Brandon Wilson and Jeff Schmidt serving as executive producers. Tess Gamboa is co-executive producer.

"Bad Girls Club"

Season four brings seven new self-proclaimed "bad girls" together in a beautiful mansion in Los Angeles. These women recognize that their outrageous behavior has hindered their relationships, careers and lives. They have issues with anger, trust and control. In a house full of women with similarly explosive personalities, clashes erupt between roommates and housemates over everything from who's on cleaning duty to where they should go out at night. Will these bad girls, faced with the mirrored image of their own behavior, learn to moderate and control their bad girl energy or will they spin out of control and flee this opportunity for change? "Bad Girls Club" is produced by Bunim-Murray Productions.
