Released a statement on the show’s final season, Oprah Winfrey said:

“The Haves and the Have Nots” was the first script-drama we aired on OWN, and to say it started from the day it blew up is an understatement. It is all thanks to the creativity and very vivid imagination of one man, a man I refer to as my ‘big little brother’ Tyler Perry. I thank Tyler, the incredible cast, the tireless crew, and every single viewer who watched with bated breath every week and tweeted with us for the past eight years. I’ll be watching with all of you this final season. “
