In one of last Friday’s episodes of Tyler Perry’s House of Payne, titled “God Bless the Paynes,” Calvin (Lance Gross) was shot by the man who’d earlier harassed Miranda (Keshia Knight Pulliam). He’s rushed to the hospital but his fate is unknown.
We’ve received a few emails from readers who believe that next week’s episodes will be the end of the series and the death of Calvin. While House of Payne has been “cancelled,” there are a lot more episodes still to come.
In April 2011, TBS announced that they were ending the venerable sitcom, in part to make way for Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse. At that time, we understood the final episode total for House of Payne to be 220 installments.
In late September, Perry posted on his Facebook page that TBS had ordered 42 more episodes. In December, the cast and crew had a wrap party that celebrated the completion of 254 episodes. It’s unclear if they’ll be going back into production now that the holidays are over but, based on the numbers we have, it seems like they still have at least eight more installments to make.
In the meantime, we do know that this Friday’s episodes of House of Payne aren’t the last. Two new episodes will air each Friday night for the next six weeks. Episodes 223 and 224 will air on February 17th and that will leave about 30 episodes left in the series.
In the meantime, you should know that Calvin does not die from his gunshot wounds. He lives and, at least in the next couple episodes, has to worry about paying his hospital bills because he doesn’t have insurance.
What do you think? Are you a fan of House of Payne? Are you glad to know there are more episodes on the way?

Faith Prayer and First and Formost God is all we need and that in real life.That’s what the show teaches me and my family.Thank u… Read more »
Will House of Payne be returning back on the air? Tyler left us in suspicion when Miranda left Calvin on the last episode? I guess that is worth waiting to see what happening in the last show, when Calvin’s parents were suppose to be re-newing their wedding vows and Miranda did not show up?
I love this show. I love the mix of funny and touching. It’s nice to have a show on TV that gives real life lessons. I can never wait for the next seasons… I can never get enough of this show. Tyler Perry does great in everything he does!
I am extremely pleased to know that there will be more episodes and yet a bit disappointed to know that they may end soon. I live overseas and purchase the volumes as soon as they come out. The shows bring you up close to your own situation. It throws everything that you could possible think of that a family would go through and yet with faith, laughter and a bit of old fashion patience and know how it gets through the day.
I am so happy that House of Payne will be returing, I watchn the reruns everyday, I love House of Payne. I wish I was able to be on the show, Ha Ha, I’ll leave that for the real actors, but Mr Perry you keep doing what you are doing making us older disabled people happy we love you and wish you God’s SPEED LOVE YA
I am so happy that House of Payne will be returing, I watch the reruns over and over again. Tyler Perry is a very smart man and I wish I was a actor, to appear on one of his shows, Ha Ha. Love You Mr. Perry And God Bless.

My mother and I enjoy the House of Payne tremendously. Tyler, you and your actors are contributing more than I can say here to the world! Your stories have real meaning, people relate and the characters are realistic and positive. Yes, we see their flaws, they are human but they are us! Continue moving beyond the boundaries and reflect the human experience with Christ. You are invaluable sharing your calling!
