On the heels of a lineup revival, Oprah's OWN network plans to premiere 10 new episodes of the 2011 family documentary TV show Welcome to Sweetie Pie's. The series follows the dynamic goings-on of well-known St. Louis, Mo., soul food restaurant Sweetie Pie's, owned and operated by Miss Robbie Montgomery, a former backup singer for Ike and Tina Turner, and her family.
More than just the drama and success of running a family-owned business, Welcome to Sweetie Pie's documents the importance of family. The series premieres on OWN on March 31 at 9 p.m. EDT.
