Tyler Perry's "The Haves and the Have Nots"

Tyler's new soap about a dysfunctional wealthy family is set to premiere on OWN on May 28. The cast includes John Schneider as the wealthy family patriarch and Aaron O'Connell (the hot guy from those Liquid Plumr commercials) as his alcoholic son.

That's actually Crystal Fox, probably best known for her role on the show "In the Heat of the Night". The cast bio on OWN says she's Nina Simone's niece.

It's an hour-long soap. John Schneider's character is a judge, and he's having an affair with Crystal Fox's character's daughter.

How are ratings?

by Anonymousreply 9June 19, 2013 11:11 AM

Record ratings but the LA Times blasted it a few days ago calling it a minstrel show and several African American scholars saying Oprah was blinded by ratings and put a show on that is contrary to her message of empowerment.

All Tyler Perry shows are viewed by critics as "minstrel shows" -- but audiences flock to them nonetheless. Oprah knew exactly what she was getting into, she's very close with Perry.

I watched some of THatHN last night.

It's definitely a soap, but it really felt like an old-school, pre Luke and Laura show.

The pace was very slow and the plots felt quite ordinary.

Is it on nightly or is it a weekly?

If it's a weekly I think it will need to pick up the pace of the plotting.

Oh, some of the acting was atrocious. I couldn't tell if it was the actors fault or just bad direction and then editing.

Coming back for a second season in January. Filming starts in October.

We've been told two of the leads won't be back - we're guessing the gay son (his parents will ship him off somewhere to straighten him out) and either the suicidal daughter or the nympho Latin maid.

Thinking Benny won't be back ( how much more can happen to him?) & Catherine. Candace would slid in her shoes. Thinking the other maid has some dirt on Jim so she'll stick around. Please don't let it best Wyatt. Super hot. Probably going to the slammer though

by Anonymousreply 26September 15, 2013 5:00 AM

I think Aaron O'Connell who plays Wyatt is HOT but the character doesn't seem long for the show.

I really hope they don't kill off Benny. I would hate to see Hannah go through that plus Tyler Lepley is oh so fine.

I never was a fan of Tiki Sumpter but she does play the hell out of that thug bitch (her mother's words) Candace.

The relationship between Katherine and Hannah is my favorite part of the show but I'm afraid the cliffhanger is going to seriously come between them, at least for a little bit. Maybe longer if Benny is dead and I don't look forward to watching that.

As hateful as she was to Jeffrey (you got to love him for going all Bette Davis on Wyatt with that golf club), I do have to say that I really do like Veronica. She doesn't play when she goes after the right people and I LOVE how she ho checked Candace. I think her portrayer, Angela Robinson, is one of the most talented actors on the show. The scene between her and Jeffrey was the best written and acted scene this season.

This show will not win an Emmy for Best Drama any time soon but I do find it quite entertaining for a Tyler Perry production.

by Anonymousreply 27September 15, 2013 7:32 PM

R27, I like Veronica as well. That scene with Jeffery was so brutal that I cried. I loved that David tried to talk Veronica down and ultimately was there for Jeffery. I also love that he knew Jeffery was gay all along and tried to prepare Veronica for Jeffery's coming out. I do believe that in the end she will support Jeffery but that is probably going to be a long drama filled road.

My mom and aunt love watching this show. (Then again they are Tyler Perry's target demographic: black, female and elderly.) I refuse to waste a single motherfucking dime on Tyler Perry's bullshit, so of course I've never watched the show entirely. What I did see was standard Tyler Perry fare: cliched melodrama, over-the-top acting, poor staging, ugly wardrobe, and one-dimensional characterizations. He's been in the business long enough now where there should be some improvement in those areas; there's no excuse for producing poor material like this.

But I guess he'll never grow as a writer-director when his demographic continues to support his garbage.

Agreed. Agreed. Agreed.

Tyler Perry is a big old stupid queen who got lucky, and then ran back into the closet.

Everything he puts out is absolute shit.

And every guy he auditions is ridiculously hot. No doubt, they pay the price by having to have some sort of inappropriate relationship with him, ala Bryan Singer.

It truly does boggle the mind how someone so untalented, can become so successful. But then again, there's Oprah Winfrey, so...

i thought for sure by now jeffrey would have been able to wickedly and cunningly seduce wyatt! as it is now, wyatt is back to drinking and not much of a storyline at all and jeffrey still fighting with nutjob mommy and not sure what he wants or who he wants... zzzzzz!

R64 So Wyatt beats the murder charge, right after he was so overtaken with guilt that he visited the little girl's grave.

The last four episodes of this show have covered about 12 hours. The timeline is impossible:

1) Katherine has her little soiree 2) Amanda shows up with Quincy who ruins the evening, outs Jim as Candace's lover 3) Jim gets abducted 4) Hannah overhears her cop friend betraying her 5) Hannah has a party for Benny 6) Candace slips away to torture Jim 7) Amanda plays with the gun and shoots herself 8) Wyatt finds Jim's phone and discovers he has a brother 9) The affair with the publicist doesn't happen. Veronica catches them anyway. Veronica goes to Jeffrey's and confronts him and Candace. She then calls Quincy and tells him to come take care of Candace. 10) Candace has her S&M orgy, takes pictures to blackmail Jim 11) Wyatt accosts the maid and asks about his brother 12) Everyone gets up wide-eyed and refreshed for a press conference....except maybe for Amanda who has a gunshot wound. She's so self-indulgent! Oh!!! And Hannah did not get laid!

R67 As a bonus may I add that during the 12 hours Veronica either got her weave tightened or got outfitted with a new wig, and Hannah invested in a brand new wig, which is very becoming. Quincy never did go to rough Candace up, but Jeffrey did mistake Benny for his mystery date sent by Candace and kissed him when he saw him in the doorway. Meanwhile, Amanda is dealing with that whole gunshot thing and continues to be unnoticed until Hannah tries to wake her for Jim's press confidence and finds her wounded with blood everywhere.

Instead of screaming or giving in, when Quincy is all over her she calls out his family and says she'll have them killed. Damn! She sent Quincy to rough up Jeffrey. Jeffrey should open the door and kiss him like he did Benny. Then it's on!

Tyler Perry clearly has a type--muscular and hunky. Wyatt, Benny and Jeffrey are like the vanilla, butterscotch and chocolate versions of the same thing. Not one of them could act his way out of a paper bag, but Jeffrey is a good crier and Benny's acting has improved by leaps and bounds since season one, but Wyatt is still pretty bad.

Melissa will probably turn up pregnant.

by Anonymousreply 111February 25, 2015 5:04 AM

guesses: Melissa has been paid by Veronica to give her a grandchild. Back story: David is gay too and he and Veronica went through this 25 years ago.

Quincy should have raped Jeffrey and taken his cherry.

Overall, the writing seemed tighter last night and there was an attempt at back story. Let's see where this goes.

Veronica is truly heinous. I wish Candace, Landon and Jeffery would team up to take down. She is so rapid it will take all three plus David to do it.

I forgot to add that so many of the young adults on that show were abused as children.

2 or is now 3 episodes in a row with wyatt teasing jeffrey? what is going on with that? at least jeffrey responds with the "you love me wyatt" comeback! bring it on tyler perry and let's have the seducing and seduction begin.. although i wonder who will be the seducer? jeffrey or wyatt?

on a sidenote, jeffrey getting that girl pregnant? yeah, because we all know it only takes 1 time! UH HUH! yeah, like what are the odds that they do it one time and it works! oh brother...

Veronica is hands down the meanest woman I've ever seen on TV.

I do not understand why David puts up with it. Why has he not dumped her ass? He needs to fuck the blonde and divorce the cunt.

I think the show has a new headwriter because the last 3 episodes have had a gigantic improvement.

I need Veronica to lose David, Jeffrey and Katherine. Catherine gave her a death glare after Veronica's snide remark about her parenting.

Too bad the hottie at the bar didn't end up being gay. I'd love to see him and Landon get it on.

Veronica is really something. Watching the way she tried to handle Katheryn while being confronted regarding her son's immutable gayness was gold.

Finally, the back stories on all of these people promise to be compelling.

Wait, this show had a black woman beating up a white woman? Shoot, take a look at the real world, Tyler. White women are beating up black MEN. Black being tougher or stronger is myth. One hay-maker, and they go right down.

No Veronica this week means it just wasn't as compelling.

by Anonymousreply 123March 5, 2015 6:30 AM

There were a number of swipes at Veronica this week, even having people call her crazy. When a snarling ex-con murderer who has just beaten your son and dubbed him "Peaches" calls you crazy, you must have issues!

Even Katherine dissed her.

jeffrey and wyatt need to get it on already! i want beyond horny addicted to each other, whenever and wherever forbidden secret "relations" between the two...

i actually want candace put in her place! oh sure, veronica is literally insane and evil, but candance? i'm so so tired of her being so smart, smarter then EVERYONE. oh please, so silly.

R125 And when did Candace finish Law School? with her online prostitution how does she expect to pass the ethics evaluation for admission to the Bar? Or does she plan on screwing everyone in the process?

by Anonymousreply 126March 5, 2015 6:06 PM

no doubt candace will seduce some old old horny fart or blackmail them, you know her usual and oh so tired m.o. (because don't you know no one can resist her and she's the smartest woman on the planet! uh huh)...

this show is so so bad, but it's addictive in some aspects.. i find myself actually laughing OUT LOUD most of the time, even in the "serious" scenes.

Candace has not always won. Katherine cut her to shreds last season when she taunted her about being Nine. 'Ronica has also bested her on several occasions. Jim also cut her at knees last season. She is also scared of Quincy. Candace's sense of herself is not necessarily the truth. That said she is one of my favorite characters.

by Anonymousreply 130March 6, 2015 3:54 AM

This show is utter shit, but it's so watchable. The acting is all over the place, but Renee Lawless has been surprisingly good (even subtle on occasion, which is a rarity on this show) since they offed Amanda.

Every woman is some varietal of a bitch, and every guy comes from the Tyler Perry fantasy catalog. So, who cares if half of them act like they are doing community theatre? I find myself laughing constantly, and much of it unintentional. It's one of my favorite hours of the week.

So Candace values one hour of her time at $25,000! Yet she gave it away to Quincy for nothing.....maybe Quincy taught her everything she knows.

What is Oscar up to?

this show is so bad it's funny! i literally laugh outloud throughout each episode.. and i don't think? your supposed to be...

beyond unrealistic, beyond bad acting, beyond makes no sense and so on... but i'll enjoy it for what it is and of course the eye candy...

candace's suitor last night was sexy. hopefully he has a body underneath his suit..

we saw the hunky male model tow truck friend of benny again last night..

where is jeffrey? wyatt feels like he needs to confess and because why? i'm guessing somehow both jeffrey and wyatt might be charged even arrested but the charges and arrest will not stick and they'll be let go because of some time statute or under mental duress because of what veronica did to them both (blackmail and so on!)... perhaps that is wyatt's plan? maybe he's not a muscle no brains after all?... perhaps this will be the added if not final push to see just how much wyatt cares about jeffrey in while punishing his mother, he's also freeing him and hopefully love and lust will ensue quickly and FINALLY!!!

What i find most frustrating is that there is no respect for any kind of timeline or continuity. One person is having cocktails while another is having breakfast.

R137! i so hear you! it's like they are making it up as they go along! do they HAVE a continuity supervisor on the set? a script supervisor? would love to be on the set during actual filming to see if it's a total fly by the seat of your pants indeed make it up as they go along chaotic circus of a set!..

Veronica has lost her mind. Tyler must have written an out for the character by having her relapse.

by Anonymousreply 139March 18, 2015 2:34 AM

So many dropped storylines. Where is Candace's baby? Amanda's professor, Who was Jeffrey's girlfriend visiting in the hospital?

Veronica has lost it. David asked her about her past drug use. She is making his life hell.

*Spoiler* Next week looks like Jeffrey can't fight the feeling. Wonder what prompted Jim to ask Wy is he in love with Jeff?

by Anonymousreply 140March 18, 2015 5:52 AM

Maybe Jeffrey will offer to service both Wyatt and his father AT THE SAME TIME...

I really love the Jeffery and Candace friendship. Jeffery has slowly evolved as the heart of the show as he is really the only character without guile.

by Anonymousreply 142March 18, 2015 11:40 AM

Other dropped storylines:

*Wyatt's extranged gf

* Celine's kids and husband

* Benny's father's health

Also.how is it that Amanda committed suicide, Wyatt confessed to vehicular homicide,the Criers are divorcing and Veronica is nuts yet Crier still employs a PR firm to run a campaign for governor?

by Anonymousreply 143March 18, 2015 5:21 PM

Bennys father showed up two episodes ago.

I am sure we will see more of Celine's kids.

Wyatt"s gf dumped him.

The whole season seems to have played out over a week.

I saw it last night and was rolling with laughter at Vernoica, the "Simple bicth," as her neutered husband David referred to her. She went apeshit and commenced to wreck the lounge in the hotel, throwing bottles and turning over tables and chairs. Can't wait to see her get her comeuppance.

After the show, there was an hour-long special showing Tyler Perry's preparations for a lavish party celebrating the casts of his shows. It was a celeb-filled affair, and he had a grand room built over his pool to hold the shindig. He's definitely taken a page or three from O's book.

by Anonymousreply 145March 18, 2015 10:11 PM

Any comments on the season Finale?

1) We got to see Q 2) Jeffrey grew a pair and gave the speech that TP has been saving for years 3) Veronica outdid Madea and went apeshit 4) Melissa was exposed. 5) Wyatt got a preview of Prison 101 6) Veronica put a smile on Bennie's face.

Were there any loose ends left untouched?

I know Veronica is a deplorable character but boy do I wish I were her in the car with Benny last night.

The finale was good.

I was so happy Jeffrey finally stood up to Veronica and made a pass at the hot campaign aid.

David is the most confounding character. Why he stays with that shrew is beyond me.

by Anonymousreply 148March 31, 2015 4:39 PM

R148 David stays with her because he thinks that they have been through a lot and have a strong bond. He underestimates how crazy she is. Peter Parros continues to be a very hot man. I was glad they got him out of a suit and into some pants that showed off his other assets. Very nice.

Well, it seems Tyler Perry has his enemies, I don't feel one way or the other. Being a gay black man his stories, nonetheless, never appealed to me. I remember when I stumbled over the female character he was playing at the time (don't know her name) was it Madera?.. I wondered why he didn't employ a mature comedic black woman actress. Black actors are always left out as far as available parts are concerned.

Saw snippets of Haves and Have Nots...I wasn't impressed; but black actors and others are getting a paycheck, experience and building their resumes, so in that respect Perry is helping.

Sometimes, I think as Blacks we sort of expect too much from our performing artists/ I know I hated the Fresh Prince from Belair...later I realized I was taking it much too seriously... And I think when W. Smith has a good script he can act convincingly...I admired him in Six Degrees of Separation ...he had some real heavy weights to act with...Stockard Channing, Donald Sutherlin and Ian McLellen...actors you can't fool with...Smith did a great job!

Back to Perry's success etc. why be appalled or surprised... look whose in the White House...I'm afraid this is what we in America are all about...It took the 21st Century for us to reveal our real selves...pretty sad days for us.
