Welcome to the backyard boogie, where the stakes stay high, the jokes land sharp, and the cards don't lie! We Playin’ Spades brings together comedians, actors, singers, and viral legends for unapologetic matchups around the now-iconic turquoise table. Hosted by Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee—two pros at talkin’ slick and playing slick—this show ain’t just about the game. It’s about the culture behind it.

Each episode, a new set of celebrity guests pull up thinking they’re ready. But once the cards get dealt and the table starts talkin’, egos get checked and true colors show. From wild overbids to busted bags, the drama is loud, the laughs are real, and the gameplay is as cutthroat as it is hilarious.

And it doesn’t stop at the cards. Nick and Courtney stay pulling folks’ cards too—calling out bad hands, messy moves, and even messier stories. By the time the last book drops, somebody’s been humbled, and a little tea’s been spilled.

Whether you're here for the strategy, the side-eyes, or the smoke, We Playin’ Spades brings the culture to your screen—one hand at a time.
