Okay, let's be real. We all have that one show we secretly love. The show we pretend we don't watch, but secretly DVR every episode. For me? It's If Loving You Is Wrong. And the question on my mind: Is it coming back?
I know, I know. People have *opinions* about this show. It's dramatic. It's messy. It's… well, it's pure guilty pleasure TV.
The Longing for More: Is If Loving You Is Wrong Really Over?
The show officially ended in 2020. That's… a while ago. But hear me out, hope springs eternal!
Think about it. Tyler Perry is a master of bringing things back from the dead. He loves his characters! He knows we love them too.
The Evidence (or Lack Thereof): A Deep Dive
Let's examine the facts, or lack thereof. There's been no official announcement of a revival. Sad, I know.
But! Has Tyler Perry *explicitly* said it's never, ever coming back? No! That's the loophole, people. That's where my hope resides.
I've scoured the internet for clues. I've analyzed social media. My conclusion? The door isn't completely closed. It's slightly ajar, maybe gathering dust, but ajar nonetheless.
Why We Need *If Loving You Is Wrong* Back in Our Lives
Look, the world is a stressful place. We need something to escape into. We need some over-the-top drama to distract us from reality. And who better than the crew from *If Loving You Is Wrong* to give us that?
Remember the love triangles? The betrayals? The shocking revelations? It was all so beautifully ridiculous. I miss it!
"Sometimes, you just need a show that doesn't make you think too hard. A show where you can root for the bad guys (sometimes). A show that makes you say, 'Oh no, they didn't!'"
That's *If Loving You Is Wrong* in a nutshell. It's not high art. It's not supposed to be. It's pure, unadulterated entertainment.
My Unpopular Opinion: It Was Actually Good!
Okay, here's where I get controversial. I think If Loving You Is Wrong was actually… good. Okay, maybe not "good" in the traditional sense. But it was *compelling*.
The characters were flawed, yes. They made terrible decisions, absolutely. But they were also relatable. We saw ourselves in their struggles, even if their struggles involved way more affairs and secret babies than our own.
The show tackled some real issues, too. Domestic violence. Infidelity. Family secrets. It wasn't always subtle, but it sparked conversations.
So, What's Next? The Waiting Game.
For now, we wait. We hope. We re-watch old episodes and reminisce about the good old days. (And secretly dream of a revival.)
Maybe if we all collectively wish hard enough, Tyler Perry will hear our prayers. Maybe he'll realize the world needs more Edward and Alex drama in its life.
Until then, I'll be here, holding out hope. And probably re-watching the entire series for the tenth time. Don't judge me. 😉
