It’s the end of an era for another primetime drama. The Haves and the Have Nots which airs on OWN is coming to an end with season 8. The show will air its midseason finale tonight with the final set of episodes slated to air in May.


HAHN debuted in 2013. The show had several successful seasons. Perry had a partnership with OWN for several years before signing a rich overall deal with ViacomCBS that took effect in 2019.

The Haves and the Have Nots was the first scripted drama we aired on OWN, and to say it took off from the first day it hit the air is an understatement. It’s all due to one man’s creativity and very vivid imagination, a man I refer to as my ‘big little brother,’ Tyler Perry. I thank Tyler, the incredible cast, the tireless crew and every single viewer who watched with bated breath each week and tweeted along with us these past eight years. I will be watching alongside you all during this final season,” shared Oprah Winfrey.


Tina Perry added, “We are so grateful to Tyler Perry, the amazing cast and everyone at Tyler Perry Studios for eight incredible years of making The Haves and the Have Nots one of the biggest hits on cable television of the last decade. The series will forever hold its place in history as the network’s first-ever scripted drama for which we are so proud. We can’t wait for fans to see the juicy storylines Tyler has planned for the final episodes.”
