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?

Bring House of Payne back. I been waiting for Volume eleven to come out….
I’ve enjoyed the house of Payne for many years I was surprised to see it was canceled. Please bring it back
Just putting my two cents in, hoping that it’ll make a difference. Looking forward to my favorite shows return House of Payne/Meet the Brown’s. I knew I could get a good laugh in. I loved all the characters especially uncle Curtis and, Malek.
For better or worse is not close to being as funny as meet the browns or house of Payne. I think that was a bad decision to take it off the air. I couldn’t wait to get home just to watch them two shows. Not good!!!!
I’m waiting for the new house of pain 2015 I hope the Davis are still in it
im glad I have been a fan since I was 8 and now Im 13 and only got to episode eight
