After 254 episodes and eight seasons, this evening marks the end of Tyler Perry’s House of Payne TV series on TBS.
In April 2011, the cable channel 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 2011, Perry posted on his Facebook page that TBS had ordered even more episodes. In December, the cast and crew had a wrap party that celebrated the completion of 254 episodes. We now know that was the last.
The series finale of House of Payne is called “All’s Well” and it caps off a very successful run. In fact, it’s the longest-running sitcom with a predominently African-American cast — surpassing The Cosby Show (201 episodes), Family Matters (215 installments), and The Jeffersons (253 episodes).
Still, it can be hard to say goodbye, even after a very long run. What do you think? Are you sorry to see House of Payne go? Should TBS have ended it? What will you miss?
WHAT….IN….THE….WORLD….? PLEASE bring back House of Payne. Thats ridiculous! For Better or Worse is definitely NOT going to get high ratings compared to House of Payne. I Love House of Payne & if I know I wont be home to watch it I make sure I DVR it! Im NOT into For Better orWorse AT ALL! But I guess TBS has to see for themselves! BRING BACK HOUSE OF PAYNE! AMEN!
Even though I hated the ending I am okay with the way it ended because it shows the reality of life. CJ and Jeanine had a rough path they were separated but they did truly love each other and they worked out but not everything will end perfectly and in life you will not always have all the answers such as Summer and Malik it just wasn’t meant to be and with Calvin and Miranda the same can be applied in life things happens and not everything will be a happy ending thats why some people choose lives going in… Read more »
Each week I look forward to watching THOP , more episodes need to be added.
Ok so I definitely agree w/every1 else. After the show last night I got online 2 see if any1 posted and felt the same as me and thank god u do. Tht was very disappointing and I don’t wanna imagine wat happens next we should do like wat people did for The Game and try and get this show back because tht was terrible…wat a waste of a great show
I have been a big fan of the show for a long time now. The show has put a smile on my face every time I watched it, I could always count on Curtis, CJ, and Floyd to get me through the day. Tyler Perry is an incredible film artist, and it showed in his work. I will not stop being a fan of him. Keep on keeping on Mr. Perry! Now onto the series finale of House of Payne… to put it as simply as I possibly could… that sucked. One of Tyler Perry’s worst episodes I have ever… Read more »
Cliff hanger?? Don’t end it there!! Please make a couple more episodes!!
I dont thinj this was meant to be the series finale, they probably planned it as a season finale and before they could film next season they got canceled dont blame tyler perry blame greedy stupid tbs.
I agree with all of the previous posts. This was a very good show and hate that it will no longer be on. If you are gonna end it then at least wrap it up and not leave all of the viewers in a cliffhanger wondering what will happen to Calvin and Miranda marriage.
I was very disappointed by the last episode it left me wondering what happened between Miranda and Calvin personally I really disliked Miranda in this last season I wish I could have slapped her so many times, she was so unappreciative and just annoying with all her complaints and yes it was her fault Calvin was shot, House of Payne is my favorite Tyler Perry sitcom but that was the worst ending of a show I have ever seen 🙁
Yes, she was annoying and unappreciative. I agree this was the worst episode
they need bring back house of paynes and meet the browns
Bring back my show cause am in suspense wat happens to Miranda and calvin and their kids how omg I have so much questions so pls bring back the show I will do anything anything that u want me to do just to bring back that show I love house of Payne and u have to be kidding me thinking for better or worse can be
As great as house of payne nooooo way is that happen in hell
After being shot cuz of her and having to deal with another child she decides to just pack her stuff and leave. Oh heck to the no. First of all half the stuff that happened in their relationship was cuz of her, so she can’t just think it’s over like that. If she going to leave . . . Ok, but she needs to give up sum money QUICK!!! Shoot. If that was me I’d put up such a fight to with her that we would hate each other. She messed up his life and then leaves. If u luk… Read more »
Ok, this can’t be the last episode……Mr. Perry you can’t leave us hanging like that…..u know we need Calvin and Miranda to resolve their issue’s……and why cancel a good show because another one has been created…..give me back my house of paynes….please
Horrible way to end a show. Like what happened next divorce ?? Stayed together few more episodes please. No closure just like the Browns WHY
I hope that there is a spin off for Miranda and Calvin, or a few more episodes to close out the series, because the ended was very disappointing. I agree with the other post, there should be more….
