NEW YORK, NY, March 15, 2011 - WE tv announced the second season renewal of its popular original series Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best?. The new season will feature 10, one-hour episodes slated to premiere in January 2012. The show features mother-daughter duo, Joan and Melissa Rivers, as Joan continues to live with Melissa as she searches for a home of her own in Los Angeles and strengthens her relationship with Melissa and grandson, Cooper. The show is packed with drama, love, laughter and Joan's unique brand of comedy as she comments on everything in Melissa's life from her live-in boyfriend to how she raises her son.

"Joan Knows Best? has proven to be a hit for WE tv and we're thrilled to offer a fresh new season to our enthusiastic viewers, and continue our relationship with Joan and Melissa," said John Miller, senior vice president of original productions & development, WE tv and Wedding Central. "Each episode features an intimate sneak peek into the lives of this famous pair, and sheds light on what we as viewers don't usually get to see. This is a mother and daughter who love each other madly but experience the same ups and downs as all of us. It's this aspect that makes the show so relatable and fun for women."
