From G's to Gents (season 1) is the first season of the MTV reality television series From G's to Gents. This season features 14 misdirected young men willing to change their lives and become gentlemen. The show is hosted by Fonzworth Bentley, and premiered on MTV on July 15, 2008. The objective of the show is to make the transformation from a roughneck to a sophisticated gentleman within the given time. In the end, Thaddeus aka Creepa was decided upon to be the most transformed and refined gentleman, winning the cash prize of $100,000 and membership in "The Gentleman's Club." A second season premiered on February 10, 2009.

The G's present themselves to Fonzworth Bentley. As soon as the G's get into the house, many of them begin to bicker amongst themselves, the biggest conflict being between The Truth and around 6 other G's, led by the Creepa and E6. Each G is interviewed by Bentley separately over the process of the first episode. Bentley gets a chance to pick up some first impressions of the G's, for example Creepa gives off a bad first impression at first when he is seen falling asleep during his interview with Bentley, but he wakes up and takes off his "hater blockers" and told Fonzworth why he needs this. Also, Pretty Ricky comes into the interview very drunk and is unable to even comprehend what Bentley is actually asking him.
Eliminated: Pretty Ricky, for being intoxicated throughout the episode, wearing a white jacket over the traditional club blazer at the Chapter meeting and ultimately doing nothing to show he wanted to change.
Eliminated: The Truth, mainly for being extremely talkative, speaking over Mr. Bentley during the interview and disrespecting the other members. Additionally, the other contestants felt negatively towards him, most notably E6 (who he was shown having an argument with earlier in the show).
First aired July 22, 2008
The G's are divided into three teams and must prepare outfits for three different events. The teams are then judged based on their outfits. While D-Boy is using the restroom, Kesan says he will "fuck D-Boy's mother with Sonia's Spoon", causing the rest of the house to turn against Kesan. Cee discovers an "X" drawn on his photograph. Cee then threatens whoever drew on his photo, and offers $500 to anyone who reveals who drew on his photograph. Cee then reveals to the viewer that he is "the greatest con artist" and drew on his own photograph so that the other people in the house will pity him, thus he will be safe from elimination. Mikey P snitches to Fonzworth Bentley about Kesan's earlier threats and tells Fonzworth Bentley that he owns a four bedroom house, a motorcycle, and a car. At the elimination ceremony, Fonzworth Bentley has Kesan apologize to D-Boy, who accepts his apology.
