The Haves and the Have Nots is a television drama series which airs on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). The show, which premiered in 2013 and ended in 2021 after 8 seasons, was created and produced by Tyler Perry. The series revolves around the powerful Cryer family and the working-class Young family, who live in the same mansion in Savannah, Georgia.

The Cryer family consists of the patriarch, Jim Cryer (played by John Schneider), his wife, Kathryn (played by Renee Lawless), and their son Wyatt (played by Aaron O'Connell). Jim is a judge who is trying to cover up his son's drug addiction and hit-and-run accident while running for governor. Kathryn is a society wife who tries to keep up appearances, despite her husband's infidelity and her own dark secrets. Wyatt is a troubled young man who struggles with addiction and has a complicated relationship with his parents.

The Young family is led by Hanna (played by Crystal Fox), who works as a maid for the Cryers. She has a son, Benny (played by Tyler Lepley), who is a tow truck driver and tries to help his mother and sister, Candace (played by Tika Sumpter), make ends meet. Candace is a sharp and ambitious woman who uses her beauty and wit to manipulate the wealthy people she encounters, including the Cryers. She also has a complex romantic relationship with Jim Cryer's son, Wyatt.

Throughout the series, there are many plot twists and turns as the two families' lives become intertwined. The show explores themes of power, wealth, class, race, family, and morality. It also features a large ensemble cast of supporting characters, including lawyers, police officers, politicians, drug dealers, gamblers, prostitutes, and socialites, who are all connected in various ways to the main characters.

Gavin Houston, who plays the recurring role of Jeffrey Harrington, a successful attorney and Jim Cryer's campaign manager, is one of the most popular characters on the show. Jeffrey is a closeted gay man who falls in love with Wyatt but struggles to reconcile his feelings with his conservative upbringing and career aspirations. Houston's portrayal of Jeffrey is praised for its sensitivity and complexity, as well as its chemistry with O'Connell's Wyatt.

Overall, The Haves and the Have Nots is a melodramatic and provocative soap opera that has attracted a devoted fan base over the years. It has been criticized for its over-the-top storytelling, implausible plot twists, and stereotypical characters, but it has also been praised for its strong performances, high production values, and social commentary. Whether you love it or hate it, there is no denying that The Haves and the Have Nots has left a lasting impact on OWN and the TV landscape as a whole.

In conclusion, The Haves and the Have Nots is a captivating drama series that explores the lives of two vastly different families living in the same mansion. With a talented cast, gripping storylines, and plenty of scandal, it is a show that has entertained and fascinated viewers for nearly a decade.

The Haves and the Have Nots is a series that ran for 9 seasons (198 episodes) between May 28, 2013 and on OWN
