House of Payne

The Paynes is an American television sitcom that premiered on January 16, 2018, on the Oprah Winfrey Network. The show was created, written, and directed by Tyler Perry and serves as a sequel to his previous series, Tyler Perry's House of Payne.

Though the show was not renewed for a second season, a revival of the original series premiered in 2020 on BET.[1][2]

Plot

The series begins in Sun Coast, Florida, where Curtis and Ella Payne come to attend the funeral of Curtis' Uncle Robert. Their trip takes an unexpected turn when Ella and Curtis get roped into a real estate deal, landing them in a new community with a new church and unfamiliar family members. The family land straight back into the issues they find in their everyday lives. As life lessons abound, Ella finds a new business, a new home, and a new purpose. On House of Payne, Season 7, Episode 14 "Been A Long Time", this series is officially retconned out of existence as it is revealed that it was all a dream that Curtis had.
