Telly’s Take
By the end of season five, The Haves and the Have Nots will have 151 episodes which is more than enough for a syndication package. While the show is still a high-rated series for OWN, the 44 episode order for season five makes me nervous. It’s not uncommon for cable channels to order lots of episodes for a later season so they don’t have to renegotiate contracts before calling it quits. For now, I will keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on The Haves and the Have Nots cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Are you glad that OWN has reportedly renewed The Haves or the Have Nots TV series for a sixth season?
Please do not cancel the show, I love it we need a season 6
I love, love the show. Just not sure what the tattoo mean. I’m sure it was explained/shown somewhere earlier in the season, but I can’t remember. Love, love the show.
Derrick was the man that raped Hannah … the tattoo is the one thing she remembers about the rapist and by him ease dropping when Hannah and Candice was talking … he knew that hannah was the lady he raped
The tattoo means hes the man that raped Hannah and is candice father.
This is my favorite show I can’t wait for it to come on its very exciting and keeps you on your toes it’s the one show that I hear people like me talk about an love it to. So please don’t cancel it as all the good shows you het rid of an keep the crappy ones. Well I no I’m mot only one that feels this way we love it stop cancelling the good shows cancel ones that are crappers. Thank you
I feel the same way too, every Tuesday I look forward to this series,after being a fan of pretty little liars. I really hope Tyler Perry will keep this series. When does it come back????
OMG I am in love with this show I just started benge watching an I can’t stop! it’s like I’m glued to the tv currently on season 4 an I must say by far the BEST tv series lol everybody crazy except Hanna so far. By the way love Hanna she is an awesome actress she make u feel like she rite there talking to u an will make u cry! shout out to the whole crew excellent actors an actresses they need to keep it going like NCIS series
Will Erica come back???? Wouldnt that make rating skyrocket??? If she returns and explains she was in danger so had to diappear for a bit ( season)
That would be crazy and drive Veronica insane
Sorry but Erica is deff. a goner. Makes for a much more interesting story line. Bcuz now Veronica has murdered 2 ppl on the low. Im so ready for tonights episode. I just got caught up on the series on HULU.
Id like for Veronica to keep getting away with things lol…it frustrates u alittle but u just have to have a VILLIAN who gets away with everything…its like the secret btween the viewers and the characters
It’s TRUE, plus I can not wait to find out what David’s revenge will be towards Veronica.
Yeah it has to be a very powerful one. Like sending her to the nut house becuz she is so very crazy and deranged.
Lol but they seen her burnt up body ,so it would be very off point if she returned. Tyler Perry would have a whole lot of work to put in ,to explain how she was blown up ,body in the car burnt. There’s no point,it would be very confusing.
It could all be a set up to finally get Veronica and David should forgive Erika bcuz candice and veronica was using and blackmailing her…she didnt want to do it they forced her and she really fell in love and so did David
I love the show, nice to keep it going all the time. They need to finally put veronica be put away and that Jim also.
Hello. I love your tv shows. Question? Is it in the making for DVDs. I would love to have a set of The Haves And The Have Nots AND If Loving You Is Wrong. Please!
I really think this show has run its course. The show’ s writing has lost its luster. It used to be so thrilling. The storylines are boring and appear to be repeats. Tyler Perry never finishes a story. I am sick of Veronica getting away with everything. Enough is enough.
This is the best show ever!
I am so happy this show will be back for season six. It keeps me on my toes although I can’t stand for Annika
This is the ONLY show I WILL NOT MISS WEEKLY! I love all the characters and especially VERONICA! She is a natural for her part. PLEASE……..DONT CANCELL !!
Yes Yes Yes I am thrilled that The Have And Have Nots are returning for another season I just love the show and look so very forward to watching it on Tuesday nights..Please Please don’t cancel my favorite show keep the seasons coming please..My heart will be broken if it gets canceled!! I have my entire family watching it please!!! ♡♡♡♡♡
Well it might not come back. On own but Bet
I have watched every episode and was looking forward to watching it tonight I schedule my Appointments and errands around the preview and the current episode. I was very disappointed it did not continue with the next episode, with no warning last week. You shouldn’t leave your audience hanging. If and when it comes back on, I will seriously consider whether I will watch it as I got so involved with it and to have it abruptly end like it did. It as if I wasted my time not to see how it would have ended. Since it began, I… Read more »
Got to leave it on. I love, love, love this show. Wait every week to see each one.
Yes it should be renewed
No no no please do not cancel. I have been watching this since season one. And please please please don’t take my Jeffrey away.
I’m devastated! this show should be renewed! I will not watch other TV shows on the Own station if you do not renew the have and have not’s. I was really unhappy with how if loving you is wrong ended unexpectedly. There was no ending and there is no ending with the have and have Nots. Please renew the have and have not’s television show!
love this show
Can’t wait until it return. Been checking every week. Love all the shows. I didn’t like the way, If loving you is wrong ended.
Please don’t cancel this show. I love it and have watched every episode. Make it real this time and let Candice and Veronica pay for their evil deeds. Nobody runs life the way these two have been running the show and getting away. Nobody is above the law
