Despite declining ratings, Tyler Perry’s The Haves and the Have Nots TV show has remained OWN’s highest-rated scripted series. So, it’s no surprise that the show hasn’t been cancelled. In January of last year, OWN ordered an additional 44 episodes which we’ve confirmed will make up season five. Will that be the end? Will The Haves and Have Nots be cancelled or renewed for a sixth season? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A primetime soap opera crime thriller, The Haves and the Have Nots stars Tika Sumpter, Crystal Fox, Renee Lawless, Tyler Lepley, Aaron, Peter Parros, Angela Robinson, Gavin Houston, John Schneider, Brett Davis, Presilah Nunez, and Nick Sagar. The OWN drama centers on the complicated dynamic between the rich and powerful Cryer family of Savannah, Georgia and their hired help who work in their opulent mansion. Season five kicks off with everyone dealing with the fallout of scandal, including some life or death consequences.

Please do not mess with this show, yet! There are too many loose ends… This is my Tuesday night special. Thank you.
Don’t mess around with this show. There are too many loose ends… Please keep.
We meet in a group to watch this show. We absolutely love the show. Please do not cancel.
The Have and Have Nots has terrible writing, the plots make very little sense, and most of the characters have no redeeming qualities, yet I watch the show every week. It’s a show that I love to hate, I’d love it even more if there was some real character development, some better scripts and situations, and just a bit more real consequences for actions on the show. I don’t know any people who can get away with shooting up mansions, blowing up cars, burying bodies in the yard…and getting away with it. With all of this being said, I’d like… Read more »
I try to support Tyler Perry. He has great ideas, but his writing is poor.The characters are so one-dimensional. There is no one on the show that I like. If they all died, it would be okay with me.
This show use to be good, but now the plot is just terrible, nobody dies on this show, Wyatt,Veronica, Benny ,Jim all has 9 lives, and no one evers goes to jail, i will not be watching!!!
Love, love love this show.
I lost interest in season 4,to me it started lagging and now I much prefer seeing Tika Sumpter on her new series ‘Mixish’
I agree the plots are getting a little crazy but I still can’t help but want to see more.
I absolutely love this show!!! It should CONTINUE!! Excellent actors and actresses!!!
We will love to see more of the Have and Have nots. When are they coming back on.
When I come home from work this is the only show I look forward to. Its bad enough that it only comes on one day a week.
Absolutely not keep it going !!!
I want to see more series of The Haves and the Have not and If Loving You Is Wrong, what happened I want to see both shows again? Please bring back BOTH Series.
NOOOOOOOOO it should not be canceled you can’t leave me like that.i really don’t like to watch TV anymore cause of that reason you get into a show and then they cancel it pisses me off changes into a show like that what about the ones that you like the show so it’s just screw us. And yes I know I can’t go on forever but you can’t let it in just like that you have to give it a good ending. It’s like having sex almost getting to the climax and pulling away and not finishing having that doughnut… Read more »
I find this show very entertaining. My husband who is blind loves the characters David Harrington and Veronica also the Cryers. We would love to see it continue for a good while, at least two more years. We are seniors retired. I think Tyler Perry is wonderfully talented , and that talent deserves to be recognized!
I hope there’s NOT going to be a cancellation for this show!! Don’t leave me hanging while I wait for the return , does anyone know if it’s been canceled? I need to know so I can clear my calendar for my Tuesday schedule this Fall , it’s the only day of the week I looked forward to!!
Would like to know if Haves and Haves Not will come back on this fall or has it been cancelled
Love this show, I will be very disappointed if does not come back on this fall 2019
