Hulu has released the first look for a new dating show hosted by Taye Diggs titled, Back in the Groove.
The eight-episode series will follow three women in their 40s seeking to get out of their respective comfort zones and build relationships with men half their age. The title and premise of the show is a play on the 1998 film adaption of How Stella Got Her Groove Back in which Diggs made his film debut alongside ESSENCE cover star Angela Bassett.
