It’s the beginning of the end for If Loving You Is Wrong on OWN. The cable channel has announced that the show has been renewed and the fifth season of the drama series will debut on Tuesday, March 10th, at 10:00 PM. The renewal comes as no surprise as stars of the series have said they’d already filmed episodes beyond season four.
OWN also revealed that there won’t be a sixth season since season five will mark the end of the series. It’s unclear how many episodes are left for If Loving You Is Wrong as the past seasons’ length has been inconsistent, ranging from 42 episodes (season one) to eight episodes (season four). Stars have celebrated filming 100 episodes so the fifth season will have at least 12 installments.
*Update: OWN later changed the fifth season premiere date to March 31, 2020.

Please don’t cancel the show ,it makes my day.
Yes, would have loved a 6th season. Each week leaves me hanging for answers!! The show is full of drama and suspense.Please don’t cancel the show! I have anxiously awaited every season.
I love If Loving You is Wrong. I watch The Have and Have Nots, The Oval Office, and Sistas. If Loving You Is Wrong is by far my favorite. Please rethink canceling the show!
Please do not cancel this show! I have been watching this show from the beginning, and wouldn’t miss for the world. Look forward to it every year!!
Love it bunch, don’t cancel
Love this show, please don’t cancel!
Please don’t cancel the show , my entire family loves it and looks forward to it.
Love this show!!!!!!
I’m a long time fan of “If Loving You Is Wrong”. The storylines moved faster in the beginning. Now they drag out 1 day a whole season! Some characters and storylines were stupid. It’s very frustrating. A 6th season would be nice, but it’s not happening. They need to make changes before “If Loving You is Wrong” ends. Faster paced, better written stories, tying up loose ends, no more stupid characters and plots. Improvements would make watching the last season worthwhile.
Your crazy
This is a good show your crazy to say bad things about it.
It will take at least 2 short seasons to get a decent resolution to all the story lines! Mr. Perry has been busy with other series, hate to blame him, but he has dragged his feel with the story lines with some junky speeches for some! He owes his 1st loyal viewers decent endings!
Same with HAHN’s viewers! (NOT this seasons nutcases being showcased! I think he wants to end these ‘snail’s jobs!)
Please don’t cancel this show!
I really enjoy this show. It’s pretty difficult to watch for a few weeks, and then it is on hiatus for months. I would love for season 6,7 etc.
I know all good things come to an end but not only would I watch season 5, give me 6 etc. I hope all is answered during this final season. All praises to the creator, cast & crew. A true fan. AMEN
I really wish Tyler Perry would’ve extended the time for If Loving You Is Wrong because it’s a very well written story line! I’ve enjoyed each and every episode because it’s an attention grabber! D.T.
