Tyler Perry's "House of Payne"
 

Ok, since I am home on leave and off from work I wasw looking for my 2nd epissode of Girlfriends that comes on at 5:30 on the WB and there was a new show that was coming on in it's place. It was Tyler Perry's new show House of Payne which stars Allen Payne (who by the way isn't fine anymore) but i'm still glad to see him back on TV and hopefully the series will make it. Was anyone else able to see this show today...from the looks of it, it will be coming all this week at 5:30pm on the WB in my area.

The guy that plays the father is funny.

When did it start coming on in your area. Today was the first here. I agree, the parents are the fiunniest, and no one else is. I noticed that the parents have the same last name. Well the people that are playing them. I wonder if they are really married in real life.

Ok, I see that it is coming on here all this week as well in the 2nd ep of where girlfriends should be.

Please not that I looooove Tyler Perry, but..........

House of Payne is not making it with me! I'm not sure if the show is supposed to be a comedy or what. The only people on the show that's funny is the Dad and the hot tail neighbor. The wife of Allen Payne cannot act. It's horrible for real. Tyler did some bad casting on this show. I think Tyler likes to bring "popular" people to the show and what he thinks is appeasing to the eye vs. casting who would be right for the roll.

Tyler............Keep on writing your plays!

He sent out a message via his e-newsletter regarding it and said that the first few episodes are background for the rest of the episodes..he said give it time and you will like it...he also said not to judge it based on the first two episodes.

It's not coming to my area but I would luv to see it...

Well I saw episode #2 today, and it was worse than yesterday, but again the guy that plays the father is hella-funny. I agree I don't know if this is a comedy or a drama...I guess it's what they call a Dramedy. I really hope that it get better...the crack wife finally left the show today.

Oddly enough, this premieres June 6, 2007 -- a year from the day the last post was made. I never saw the test episodes from last year so I am looking forward to seeing it for myself.

I will definitely watch. Thanks for the update.

I believe I watched at least two episodes when it first primeired on UPN...that's all it took for me...no wonder it was dropped, lol. Just my opinion but Tyler should stick to plays and plays only!!!

I've heard this from others who have seen this show. But of course, I'm going to have to see for myself. I will be tuned in on 6/6/07.

I felt the same when the pilots aired last year, but the show has been revamped so I'll give it another chance.

You know, I thought that the title sounded familiar. I thought it was on before. You know that Seinfeld and Blossom was on two different networks before it actually got picked up and found it's audience. I hope that it will last time, eventhough it is on TBS. Who really frequents TBS?

Actually the show did get better last year when it was on for 2 weeks. I'm actually looking forward to seeing the show again this time. Yes it has been revamped this time, and also Tyler Perry paid for the full 22 ep's out of his own pocket. He said that he didn't want to have to depend on the network to decide if the show was good enough for a full season, so he paid himself and this way people can really try and get at the show, and hopefully it will catch up.
