Single Ladies, Monday 9 p.m., VH-1

And now, a dramatic reading from the scripted urban drama that was kind of stolen from “Sex & the City’’ but named after a Beyoncé song.

But you probably didn’t know that Austin’s parents are said to have met on the set of “Bonanza’’ or that she’s recorded a song called “Shoe Freak,’’ in which she lists her favorite footwear designers and gives a salesperson grief (“what part of stiletto do you not understand?’’). In the 9:30 hour, the T’s renew their vows. It’s love so nice Ice did it twice.
