Okay, let’s talk about the Haves and the Have Nots series finale. Honestly? It was... something. I'm going to say it: I kind of enjoyed the chaos.
Did everything make sense? Nope! Did everyone get a perfectly happy ending? Absolutely not. But hey, when did Tyler Perry ever promise us a neat little bow?
The Explosions... Everywhere
First, can we discuss the explosions? Like, were they necessary? Probably not. But were they dramatic and over-the-top? 100% yes. That's the show, right?
Candace Young, played by the amazing Tika Sumpter, was...well, Candace. Always in the middle of everything. Even when she maybe shouldn't have been.
And Katheryn, oh Katheryn! She had a weird love-hate relationship with everyone. We could not help but watch. She was played by Renee Lawless.
Benny’s Fate: An Unpopular Opinion
Now for my unpopular opinion. I wasn't completely devastated about what happened to Benny. Hear me out!
I know, I know! He was the "good guy." The heart of the family. But let’s be real, he was always getting into trouble. It was a matter of time.
Maybe this is too harsh. But think about it: his death, while sad, propelled the story forward. It forced everyone to react. And that's good television, right?
Hanna: The Rock We Needed
Through it all, Hanna (Crystal Fox) remained the rock. The moral compass. Always praying, always hoping.
Did she make perfect choices? Of course not. But she always tried to do what she thought was right. Even when "right" was a little…flexible.
She endured so much. From poverty to betrayal. Hanna held the family together.
The Unresolved Mysteries (Because of Course)
Of course, the finale left us with questions. Because that’s what Tyler Perry does! We want more.
What really happened to Veronica Harrington? Did she truly find inner peace? Probably not, but we can dream. We love that lady.
And what about everyone else? Did they learn their lessons? Did they change? Or are they doomed to repeat the same mistakes forever?
"Life’s a journey, not a destination." - Someone (probably Hanna)
Okay, maybe I just made that quote up. But it feels appropriate. Because this show was a wild, messy journey.
The Final Verdict: We Were Entertained
So, was the finale perfect? No. Was it satisfying? Debatable. Was it entertaining? Absolutely.
The Haves and the Have Nots gave us drama. It gave us laughs. It gave us characters we loved to hate (and sometimes just plain loved).
And sometimes, that's all you can ask for. Let's face it, we tuned in every week for the outrageous storylines, and that's what we got until the very end. So, thanks for the ride!
I'm just saying, I'm going to miss all the chaos.
