I just LOVE this dynamic duo in their own respects. I get it many do not.
OWN will carry and present two new Tyler Perry series. They will premiere on the network in May 2013! This announcement was made in late October and was a powerful move in my opinion. OWN needed some love to regain its struggling viewership and well, simply put Perry has a very diverse and powerful following who can do just that. Of course it is a very powerful business decision for both. OWN will now serve as Perry’s “singular destination for all new television series and projects,” the statement said, adding that the channel had entered into a “multi-year partnership” with him according to OWN’s website.
The first presentation will be “The Haves And The Have Nots”. This is a one-hour drama series about the affluent Cryer family and the improvised family of their housekeeper Hanna.
The second presentation will be “Love Thy Neighbor”. This is a half-hour comedy set at Love’s Diner where “the menu serves up good food, great laughs, valuable life lessons and a whole lot of love for its zany neighbors.”
I am ready with popcorn in hand for the premiere of these series on Wednesday, May 29th. So excited. Yes, I am huge Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey fans! {smile}
