Telly’s Take
Some of these cable networks drive me to drink something a little stronger than carrion blood, if you know what I mean. Although the question: “Has The Haves and the Have Nots TV show been cancelled or renewed for season five?” should be easy to answer, it isn’t always. Often, basic cable outlets are willy nilly about season and episode numbering.
It seems to me the recent 44 episode pickup should mean OWN has renewed The Haves and the Have Nots for season five and maybe even season six. On the other hand, the renewal could be for a mondo sized season five (or season four) or some weird combination of the three. Unfortunately, OWN hasn’t said how they plan to air the 44 episodes. Suffice it to say, fans don’t have to wonder if The Haves and the Have Nots TV show will be cancelled anytime too soon. This is just fine by me. Disorganization destroys my appetite.

Please don’t cancel this show, I am 71 yrs old and this is my favorite show. I usually record it and watch it later. I think Tyler Perry is one of the most tarented people we have in Hollywood right. He certainly knows what the people like. All his shows and movies are great. Keep it up!
