TV Land has changed the name of the upcoming "Hot in Cleveland" spin-off series starring Cedric the Entertainer. The sitcom was titled "Have Faith", but now TV Land has changed it to "The Soul Man".
Like the "Have Faith" title, this is not to be confused with another sitcom ("Soul Man", 1997-98 on ABC).
"The Soul Man" is TV Land's newest original sitcom, created by Cedric "The Entertainer" and "Hot in Cleveland" creator Suzanne Martin. The show revolves around Cedric's character, Reverend Boyce "The Voice" Ballentine, an R&B superstar-turned-minister who takes over as preacher of his father's church.
Niecy Nash ("Reno 911", "Dancing with the Stars") also stars as the reverend's wife, Lolli. The character of Reverend Boyce originated on a second season episode of "Hot in Cleveland" in which Cedric guest starred.
"The Soul Man" is slated to premiere on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 at 10:00pm and will have a 12-episode order.
The series will be paired with the second season of "The Exes", which also returns on June 13 at 10:30pm, as previously announced for June.
