Public affairs, such as Lead Story, also should be part of that.
In terms of entertainment, I would most definitely add serious dramatic programming. I'm thinking about City of Angels. I'd even have new episodes made.
Music programming: Mix in more jazz, and not that smooth jazz isht you see too much of on BET on Jazz. Deemphasize the booty, jigga, bling-bling videos.
Talk shows: I'd put on a serious counterweight to Oh Drama.
These would be a few things that BET could do to attract people with more gravitas.

I share pretty much the same ideas:
News (mornings and evenings)
Original drama/comedy series
Original movies
Variety of music - more adult comtemporary, less booty-shaking
Health and fitness
talk shows
No infomercials!!!!!!!
