Oxygen Media announced that it scored its best Monday night performance in prime time in its history. Additionally, the channel was the #1 cable network in the 9PM hour among W18-34. Fueled by the strength of megahit "Bad Girls Club" and its dating competition offshoot "Love Games: Bad Girls Need Love Too," Oxygen Media earned its best Monday traditional prime (Mon 8p-11p) ever among A18-49, W18-49, A18-34 and W18-34. At 9PM, "Bad Girls Club" earned A18-49 (1.033 MM), W18-34 (599,000), and 1.613 MM total viewers, up +18%, +10% and +19% respectively from last week. In the 9PM hour, Oxygen was the #2 English language television network, behind only ABC, and the #1 cable network among W18-34. At 10PM, the season two premiere of "Love Games" earned A18-49 (713,000), W18-34 (397,000), and 1.255 MM total viewers. Compared to the prior four week time period average, the season premiere of "Love Games Season 2" was up +126% with P18-49, and +166% on a total viewer basis, and +122% among W18-34. On Oxygen.com, compared to the premiere of "Love Games Season 1," unique visitors to the "Love Games" show site showed positive growth of +47% yesterday.

A spin-off of "Bad Girls Club," the dating competition series "Love Games" features former Bad Girls vying for the man of their dreams. The ladies bring their feisty ways back to the airwaves in search of love from a pool of eligible suitors. Each week, the Bad Girls have the group of bachelors competing for their attention in a series of challenges and entertaining group dates. The men that don't catch their eye and win their hearts are eliminated. "Love Games: Bad Girls Need Love Too" is produced by Bunim-Murray Productions with Jonathan Murray and Gil Goldschein serving as executive producers.
