The Haves and the Have Nots is a prime time cable drama show written by Tyler Perry, focusing on the interacting lives of the rich Cryer and Harrington families, and the poor Young family. Hanna Young, a struggling maid working for the Cryers, is a woman who was not the best person in the past but is now a woman of faith. But her faith, and her resolve are tested when she finds out that her promiscuous daughter Candace Young (to whom she tries desperately to avoid) has included herself into the lives of her mother's employer, Jim Cryer, and his family.

I'm an avid Tyler Perry fan (for his movies and plays but don't care much for the TV sitcoms)! I support him in whatever he does but the 2nd season of this was horrible! The 1st 5 episodes was Benny in a hospital bed and Hanna screaming save my son! This was so poorly written! What judge will give a man authorization to pull the plug on a son that (1) he's never had any part in his life (2) is grown and the mother that raised him is still alive and present in his life (3) doesn't even know if its his real son! No DNA test, nothing!!! This was a soap opera! People who still love soaps probably loved it! But I hated it all the way to the end of the season! I will NOT watch a 3rd season of this non-sense! He has a movie coming out Friday that I will definitely check out! I think he needs to stick to writing movies!
