Hello and good evening.

Tonight is the night. I feel like a little kid. Thank you for joining us. I

Egypt Sherrod and I am so excited to be here for this historic The Haves and the

Have Nots final cast reunion.

We are here in Atlanta at the legendary Tyler Perry Studios with this phenomenal

cast.

We're going to talk about all of those over -the -top storylines.

Ooh, girl, them juicy sex scenes.

I need a cigarette or something.

So let's start bringing them out.

Please welcome Pisa Sumter.

Hi, Pisa.

I love you.

The lady in red, you look gorgeous.

The incomparable Crystal Fox.

Beautiful. Ladies, get ready. Tyler Nutley.

How we doing? How we doing? How y 'all doing?

How are you?

Okay, get ready for Angela Robinson.

Thank you. Peter Parris.

How y 'all doing?

I think she had a coronary in the green dress at one point. I saw one of y 'all

fall out. Well, get ready for Aaron O 'Connell.

My goodness. Okay, so let me just say, before we get started tonight, I can

there's going to be some foolery going on, and we welcome it.

But thank you for being here, truly. And you guys are even more beautiful and

handsome in person, right?

And you might realize we are missing one cast member, John Snyder. He was unable

to make it tonight because she killed the heck out of him.

We have so many questions for you. But before we get started, a special cast

message from none other than Lady O.

Miss Oprah Winfrey, guys, roll it.

I just want to say a big, great, grand hello to all of you, the cast of Have

Have Not.

And I'm so glad that you could all be together for this reunion. I know that

fans are loving it.

So you all know this story already, that when Tyler came to me and said he

wanted to bring a primetime scripted drama to OWN, I was like, really?

You want to do that? He said yes. And excited I was because, as you all know,

has this genius about him. And I knew that he would have the magic touch and

was going to be good. But then...

that have not became not just good, but a phenomenon.

With over a million diehard fans showing up every Temptation Tuesday to see what

new twist Tyler had up his sleeve. I don't know. Does the man sleep? How does

come up with all these storylines?

From that very first moment of the series.

Hi. Hi.

The meeting between Candace Young.

I thought I was coming to see some old man.

Jim Cryer.

I am old.

You don't look it.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

That set everything into motion, and it's been one crazy ass, too darn hot

I can tell you all that.

That's not my son.

And on behalf of everyone at OWN and all of the viewers.

All of us who work behind the scene, I want to thank this entire cast.

All of you. The haves and have nots will go down as one of the most

unforgettable shows ever.

Certainly on OWN. And thank you all for eight rollercoaster seasons. You have

given us a ride.

Unforgettable indeed.

Well, Oprah is going to be sharing her favorite scenes all throughout the

Plus, one unsuspecting Habs fan gets a little visit from her favorite cast

member. I wonder who that was.

You'll definitely want to stick around for all of that. But, you know, let's

start with you, Tika.

It has been an amazing ride, yes?

Yes. It has. And I don't think the fans realize it's been two years since you

guys have taped.

Yes, two whole years. Wow. But how does it feel now being here, seeing all of

your family members?

Oh, my gosh. I mean, just the energy that you felt coming out.

From all of us, that's the energy that we have all the time. And seeing this

family just feels, I feel safe with them. And I love them so much. And I've

heard even in interviews where everyone sort of referred to this cast as just

that, a family. And not the kind that tries to kill one another.

But is that how everyone felt?

Absolutely. I know. I think so.

We've had a lot of life together.

Yeah, a lot of life.

We've gone to weddings together. We've been to funerals together.

We've celebrated people's children being born together. You know, we didn't know

totally what we were all getting into when we first got on here. And it was

first show, drama on OWN. And I didn't know how the fans would react to my

character. I was like, oh, Lord. How did the fans react?

me when some people are like, I want to be just like Candace. I'm like, no, no,

no, no, no, not fully, not fully. But I'm just, I, I have to tell you the

gratitude we feel to our fans and to every single one of you. I get chills in

body because you guys have rode with us till the wheels have fallen off and have

still been supporting us in everything that we do. And we're so very grateful

you. Seriously.

Yes. Candace Young.

So many moments where I threw stuff at the television set.

But, like, she's just never going to learn.

That girl's never going to learn.

Here's a look back at Candace Young.

I've been on my own since I was 16.

I was raped and molested as a little girl.

I don't know who my father is.

My mother and I can't stand each other.

I had a baby with a gang member who went to jail for multiple homicides.

That's who I am.

And what can I say, Tika, from our very first phone call? And you said yes. You

just played the hell out of Candace Young.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have people waiting for me.

Go on back to your mating and fetching mama.

The plots and the schemes.

You are so pretty.

They can mess up your face so badly that your own mother won't recognize you. I

want $100 ,000 in cash today.

Outmaneuvering just about everybody who stood in her way.

What is your name?

Candace Lutz.

You took that character on and you made it your own. Honey, you need to get

laid. What kind of men do you like? Thug, young, I'll send somebody to your

house. And the next time you decide to break someone's heart, make sure it's

a cold -hearted bitch who knows how to get even, Mr. President -elect.

But it was her tender moments that really had us rooting for Candace to do

right thing.

You still help me up.

One of the ones I'll never forget, that beautiful scene when Candace finally

reconciled with her mother.

I can't forget you.

I can.

Not Jim.

Because every day I wake up and wonder if Q ever will.

Wow. You had all of us doing the ugly cry, Candace and Hannah.

I love you so much.

What's it like for you watching yourself back, watching that tape?

It's crazy because, you know, I would yell at myself, too, and I would read

script like, what? You're not learning anything. And then, you know, I think

evolution of Candace of being hard to being able to see her vulnerable and to

see her reconcile with her mother and really try to get out of the life that

created for herself.

I love her. I love Candace Young so much.

You said that last scene with Crystal was one of your favorites. Why is that?

I think because I got to connect with Crystal.

In the middle of that scene, I just hyperventilated. I just started going, I

couldn't remember my line because I was so in it with her. And I just go, and I

looked at Tyler and I go, I don't know what's happening.

And he's like, come here, come to the room with me. Let's just, you know, and

was like, because Crystal's character and my character have always been like

this and never had a real moment to just say, I'm sorry. That's the first time I

said I'm sorry to my mother, who I've wrecked millions of times. It was an

emotional moment to watch. It truly was. It kind of brought everything full

circle. You know, we live that.

But the series ends with Jim, John Snyder, drowning Candace in the bathtub.

How do you feel about that?

Do you think maybe Tyler Perry should have changed the script and had Candace

drown Jim instead?

Yeah. When I read it, I just was like, farewell, Candace. Oh, my God.

It's over.

Well, Crystal Hannah's the one who had the honor of killing Jim.

Very well, might I add.

Oh, I guess I shouldn't be smiling about that. It's okay.

I mean, it's TV. It's TV. You can smile. Thank you. Oh, my God.

Yes. It was about time.

But I think that moment after your character hit him and you just screamed

emotion, wasn't that an impactful way to end the whole series? Because you felt

it. You felt the rage. You felt the anger. You felt the hurt. You played it

well. Thank you.

Thank you.

scream for me was for her my child she doesn't know about Benny yet

but I knew about that and it was like my baby is gone so that that

scream was for all moms and parents who understand what that is

we would like eel kisses in the dressing room and Tyler's like

who you been kissing

back, guys, to the Haves and the Have Nots final cast reunion on OWN. I'm

Sherrod. We are here at the Tyler Perry Studios in the A, the place where it all

went down. Eight years of the wildest, craziest, sexiest, Tyler Perry flat

twistiest TV you are ever going to see. And boy, are we going to miss it. I

mean, truly.

Yeah. But they're all here. They're here. This is it.

And they look fabulous, don't they?

So, Tika, go like this one more time, because it's hard not to see that rock

her finger, yes? Oh, I'm like, huh?

Wrong hand, wrong hand.

So,

you're engaged to Nick James, better known to fans. Officer Justin! Officer

Justin Lewis!

Yes!

Don't threaten me again.

A threat would be screaming to your mother.

And your wife, how you enjoyed getting off on Jeffrey.

You don't want to go down this road with me.

Is it okay that I ask how that went down?

Yeah, sure. You know, I don't talk much about my love life, really. But I don't

mind talking about it here.

I first saw him in the makeup room.

And I had my dog, Lola.

And he's like, what's your dog's name? I'm like, Lola.

He's like, oh, is that a boy or a girl? I go, Lola. He was so nervous.

He was so nervous. And then on set, he was like my last scene of the day. I was

so tired.

And literally, he just made me laugh the entire time.

And I was like, wait, you're fine and you're funny?

OK. And I actually gave him my number.

You made the move.

I did. I was like, so if you guys all go out, you know, just call me. And his

friend had to say, yo, she likes you. He's like, who?

She? Her?

And I'm like.

Oh, one more thing.

So Nick and I, before anybody really knew, we would like steal kisses in the

dressing room, you know, but sometimes a brown nose rubs off on a white nose.

So he goes to set one day and Tyler's like, who you been kissing?

He goes, what? He goes, what? What are you talking about? He goes, Tika.

And he goes.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Yeah, I mean, Tyler was like, mm -hmm, okay.

Oh, yeah.

You're not going to get anything past TP. Right, exactly. He knew exactly who

was, too, right? Exactly, exactly.

Well, someone in our audience, where's Monica? She has a question about this.

Monica, come on, stand up in your beautiful pink.

So now that we know that you and Nick have something going on, how did he

feel with all the...

hot, sexy scenes that you did throughout the season.

Look, inquiring minds want to know, Kika.

How did he feel about your hot, sexy scenes? Well, I'm like, Candace was

all this before you came on. So she's going to continue. But I think he, you

know, he's like an actor. He's like, look, that's what you have to do. We're

friends. And Nick Sager, who plays Charles, you know, I call them my two

I'm like, aw, my Nick and my Nick.

All right, bye, my real Nick. I got to go.

You know, I wish you guys could come to a scene where we do that stuff because

it's awkward.

But, yeah, he was fine with it. He's like, you're an actor. That's what you

to do.

Yeah, because I always wondered, Renee, so during the love scene, does it kind

of continue after they say good? Well, it depends on who the love scene is

Because I can assure you, when John seduced me, I was like, are we done yet?

off me. I was done.

It's like kissing my brother, but with Broderick?

Can we do another date?

I was like, I don't think we got it on that date.

So, it depends.

And I am single, so you know what I'm saying.

Shoot your shot.

This is fake, baby. This is fake.

So what was it like for some of the rest of you to do those over -the -top sexy

love scenes?

Well, before the pros get to it, I have to say, I was a nervous wreck.

Oh, my God.

Before the pros get to it.

Y 'all have so many scenes like that. And I feel like I had one.

And it was so uncomfortable.

I am not shy about a lot of things. But when it came time for the kissing stuff,

I was like.

I was a hot.

mad about it.

You know, I think that when I had scenes with the little baby... You can't be

talking about me.

There ain't no babies over here. You can't be talking about me.

But let me tell you why that is exactly true.

Because when Benny and I got together, at first I thought, okay, oh my God, you

know, I hope he doesn't feel like he's kissing his mama.

But, you know, I...

We got to work that out. But immediately, he was so gracious. And

he was like, are you OK? At the end of every take, are you OK?

Can I do anything? And would you say, yes, I am OK.

But I was very moved by his generosity.

Because it can be very awkward. You know, you show up, there's booms in your

face, and, you know, someone's directing you, and, you know, Tyler's directing

you in the ear, and there's 30 people on set.

Yeah. You know, I got a little, they call it a Houdini on, you know what I

I'll be, you know, you're fully nude. You just got the, you know. Are you?

Oh, wow.

Tyler, I always wondered that. So you guys are doing the love scenes, and to

it looks like you're nude, but I thought maybe you guys had, like, a nude

bodysuit on or something? Yeah, well, so they call it a Houdini.

Bottom line is, you know, you put your junk in there, and you're pretty much

naked, though. You're pretty much naked, yeah.

You know, you guys are all talking about it. I'm still waiting for Tyler to

write mine.

I mean, I'm like... Wait, you walked down a staircase in season one half

That's true. And I have to play his mama.

And I'm going...

We're not even halfway through. We have laughed. Our eyelashes have fallen off

of our eyes. We've been having a ball up here, and there's still so much more to

go. So stick around, guys. The Haves and the Have Nots cast is here when we come

back.

Welcome back to the Haves and the Have Nots final cast reunion. I'm Egypt

Sherrod. So Wyatt Crider and Jeffrey Harrington's relationship over the years

has been, well, if we were on Facebook, we would just put, it's complicated.

Yes. But it's been so much fun to watch, yeah?

Aaron O 'Connell and Gavin Houston play these characters beautifully.

Take a look.

What are you doing?

Stop it.

See?

Got nothing.

And you all know Wyatt Pryor, played by Aaron O 'Connell.

Down there, by the cotton morphing? What'd you do, robbing Earth?

Every week, Aaron had us saying, oh, oh no, Wyatt, oh no.

As the out -of -control Pryor son.

Where did we go wrong with you? Everywhere, Mom!

I have a substance abuse problem and we have alcohol all over the damn house.

Everywhere.

And you're still going wrong.

Move.

Move. Aaron always kept us on the edge of our seats, especially when he went

after his parents.

I thought you lost your mind with a shotgun.

I love you.

It's for your own good. Really?

But without Aaron's charm, it wouldn't have been nearly as much fun to watch.

You took the role of Jeffrey Harrington, Gavin, and you brought a portrayal that

I know has impacted so many of our viewers. It was the first season.

When your mom, Veronica, Lord, had that conversation about not allowing a gay

son. Oh, my gosh. I had to get off the treadmill. I was crying so hard.

It was so moving when Jeffrey finally faced his fear and came out to his

parents. Oh, that was big.

Mom, I'm gay.

Honey, you are not a homosexual.

You're not.

Gavin, you could also surprise us, too. Who could forget that shocking Tyler

Perry twist when Jeffrey dabbed his own mother?

Stop being a drama queen and get up.

Didn't I tell you to get up? I

got

to say, kind of deserved it.

I think Oprah said what we were all thinking.

But, I mean, that scene, every time I watch it, it's like, because you felt

bubble under, you know, of the dynamic of their relationship. You knew he was

going to blow. You just didn't know when, and you definitely didn't know

So what was it like, Gavin, when you read that script and realized, wow, I'm

really going to do this?

Well, I hope that wasn't it, the end. You know, I was like, is she alive?

Because maybe we need to do some rewrites, because I don't know if that's

to work for me.

When I found out that she would survive it, then I was like, okay, well, then I

will gladly stab her because it is time for Jeffrey. No, you know, the whole

time, and Angela and I are the greatest of friends, and we trust each other, and

those scenes are hard for us. But we just, we go deep, and we bring it

we know it's our responsibility.

I'm going to look over here at Aaron.

For a few reasons. Number one, I think it was cruel and unusual punishment for

us as the viewers to see you without your shirt on so many times and not get

love scene.

All this hard work, you know, prepping for, you know, I booked the role in

so I had no carbs for at least six months.

I go shoot it thinking I'm going to have maybe a girlfriend and, you know, by

episode four, nothing.

Nothing.

Well, we do, Aaron, have a fan question for you. Yeah. How about we roll it?

My name is Christina, and I am from Columbia, South Carolina.

Oh, my God, Wyatt, you have to tell me, how did you feel playing such a horrific

scene when you tried to kill Jim and Catherine, your parents? Oh, my God, I

to know.

She was so passionate, yes? That's a great question. Well, there's the Wyatt

answer, and then there's the Aaron O 'Connell answer.

I'll start with the Wyatt answer. The Wyatt answer, I couldn't wait for that,

right? Just years and years, right? But I had to, you know, have that in me to

the anger, the hatred of all the years of what Wyatt built up inside from the

relationship with his parents and the things that he's gone through. But from

the Aaron O 'Connell and, you know...

I love Renee, right? I mean, how many, I mean, we've spent years and, you know,

the relationship that we have, it's just kind of like, man.

I went to his wedding in Italy.

I mean, like, this is love, people. Yeah.

Flew across an ocean.

It's a good question, but it's so, you know, I'm so different than my

I'd like to think. My mom's here in the audience, too, so I hope, you know.

Where's your mom?

Where's mom? She's right there.

Whose name is Catherine. Thank you very much. That's right.

Yeah. Well, there was a storyline or story arc that was a gift for many

It's actually culture defining.

Performed by Gavin.

I mean, you just brought such heart and humanity to Jeffrey.

I mean, especially with the scene of you coming out to your parents. I mean, it

brought tears to many people's eyes who were afraid to come out. Right. Who had

been living in the dark, living in the closet, afraid to live their truth loud

and proud.

And so many want to thank you for that.

And there's actually someone in the audience who would like to say something

you. Sharna, where are you at? Sharna.

First off, I would like to say thank you.

18 years ago, I came out to my family.

And you talking about somebody that was scared, I was so terrified.

Take your time.

Rejection is real, you know.

It does put you in a dark place, okay?

And so I want to thank you and also Tyler Perry for, you know, adding

that is so real, something that needs to be discussed, you know.

went on, I was able to find people that were very supportive of me.

Very supportive. I think that's very important. And so now I am able to live

my truth.

I'll tell you what, why don't you get your ass in that nice car and get out of

here, because you don't scare me.

I'm being just about as patient as I can be with you and your mother. You say

something about my mother.

And then there's the other Tyler, Mr. Tyler Lepley, who played Benny Young.

I know why

a lot of you out there like Benny so much, because even Tyler laying in a

He made that look good. And even Veronica could not resist him.

Veronica, I don't have time for all this. Come on.

She's been waiting for you.

Mama, please, give him to me. Come here.

Let's get him. Mama,

give him to me.

Give him to me, Mama. He needs help.

Tyler, you also brought death and dimension to that young man who just

be there for his mom and to keep his family safe from harm. Well done, sir.

done.

Have's and have nots. Final cast reunion on OWN. I'm Egypt Sherrod. Well, that

was Mr.

Benny Young, played by the fantastic Tyler Leftley.

I'm telling you, don't you say nothing about my mama.

Hey, listen, to be able to showcase a black man that was really just trying to

support his family and do the right thing, it was just a treat to be able to

play. And it's so relatable, though. And I think what's more astounding, and I

don't know if the fans even know this, is that this was your first.

Acting gig.

Yeah.

Thank you. Thank you. You know, I got to give all my love to Tyler Perry, to my

castmates, to the supporters.

You know, y 'all like family now, too.

Because to be able to grow, you know, and make mistakes in front of the camera

is just something that I always hold, you know, close to me.

What did you do? Like that moment, you got the call, you heard you got the

and go.

Oh, I got some Hennessy. I went on Sunset. I climbed up.

Rolled me up some. I was going up.

One thing's for sure. The have and the have not, hands down, has the absolutely

most. Is that in the dictionary if I say absolutely most?

We're just going to make that a thing now. Y 'all are the absolutely mostest,

loyalistest fans ever.

Yes.

But there is one diehard fan that stands out from the rest.

Get this.

Since day one, Yolanda has been hosting viewing parties every single season.

She throws a haves party where she goes all out. I mean, there's catered food.

Oh, oh. And then wine bottles with the cast.

And here's the partying gift bag for the haves party.

Oh, my goodness.

And then there's the have -nots party.

Still a ton of fun, but not so fancy. With the paper plate.

Hot dogs.

Come on. Oh, and there was once a character potato bar.

I would love to have been there.

Right?

Right. I love it. So when we heard about Yolanda, we reached out to Tyler Lepley

to help us surprise this ultimate fan.

Last week, we got Yolanda on the Zoom. She thinks she's about to talk with one

of our producers, right? Right.

We'll take a look.

You don't do that. Y 'all too old, first of all. Right.

Yeah.

Here they come.

It's Vinny. No.

What's going on, y 'all?

Hey. What's up, Vinny?

You having half -and -half watch parties down there?

Yes, we are. We have our half -and -half watch party.

Hey.

So I got a surprise for you.

we're going to have like a cast reunion series finale party to send off the show

in the proper way.

So I was thinking, you know, maybe you and a friend get flown out. Y 'all come

with us. What'd you think?

I don't want to, I want to let you get back to

the show. I know you're watching it right now.

I can speak for the whole cast, Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey, all the way down.

Like we appreciate you and we love you. I appreciate that.

And I'll see you next week, all right?

All right. Bye.

Bye, Needy.

Oh, my goodness. He is gorgeous.

Look,

now I got to go hug him.

I love it.

Well, guess what?

Yolanda is here with her best friend, Sharonda.

Yolanda, where are you? Where are you?

So what are you going to do now that the show is over?

I know. That's what we said. We said we would do an annual regroup, like a

reunion with us, because everybody's going to miss it.

You want to go give her a hug?

You know what, Yolanda?

I got to get it, Vinny.

I was telling you this on the phone, but this show doesn't go anywhere without

your support. You know what I'm saying? So I don't take it lightly. Thank you.

Thank you so much.

We're going to take a break, okay? But we will be right back. I don't want you

to move with the cast of The Have and The Have Not.

have not final cast reunion on owner i'm egypt gerard that was of course david

pharaohs trying to drown the ice queen veronica who never dies so peter a lot

of people have tried to kill veronica right how did it feel when it was

your turn i'm looking back at that moment and remembering that was

Jeffrey was not his son.

But in that moment, when we were going through it, I was like, okay, I could,

yeah.

Just the way she was in that moment, I think Veronica was more cold to David

than she had ever been.

So I was ready.

But then on the flip side, it was so weird after because that

season, That was Angela's last scene.

So, you know, you're thinking, I'm like, how's she going to come back from this?

But she had her lifeguard lungs.

That saved the day. Come the next season.

But Angela, you sent us a picture from that day of filming.

When you filmed that scene.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And so in that picture, it looks like, Crystal, were you crying?

Always.

Always, always, always, always. I thought, sure, I was a goner.

And I think the emotion was that, you know, being a

goner is a sad thing.

But being a goner and this family that I love, they go on and I'm like, I don't

care.

On your wedding night.

Somebody had to do it.

Friend Jim's good friend. I don't know how you did it, Peter.

Jeffrey!

David Harrington, wow, has been through some stuff. And Peter, you took a step.

It's not him.

Oh, my son.

You will be remembered as the man who dealt with all kinds of viciousness.

That crazy wife of yours, Veronica.

Hear ye, hear ye.

There lies a cheating man.

I didn't want to be close to you.

Why?

So I can do what I said I would.

What's that?

Kill you.

And as the father who stood by his son, Jeffrey. We love those storylines.

Peter, you gave us so much humanity to that role.

And your portrayal of acceptance was just was a really moving part of the

over the years.

Know that I love you.

I love you too, Dad.

I love you no matter who you're sleeping with.

Thanks.

Those scenes between David and Jeffrey, they were truly touching.

All right, guys, we'll be right back. Don't move.

Why in the hell would you have pain medication in this house?

Because I'm married to a pain in the ass.

Miss Renee Lawless, as the formidable Catherine Cryer and all of your

unforgettable team.

from her number nine monologue in season one.

Your name is Nine.

You think I didn't know about you, Nine?

I hold the purse strings in this hand and his balls in this one.

You are a non -factor.

To that shocker when she shot and killed the district attorney in cold blood.

And then just as casual as you please, strolled across the room, fixed the

flower arrangement like nothing had ever happened.

Classic Catherine.

Are you going to the hotel, dear?

Are you going to hell, dear?

Are you serious?

Hello, Jim.

And some of Renee's most unforgettable scenes, you all know as fans, came when

she was going toe -to -toe with her on -screen husband, the ruthless Jim Cryer,

played by John Snyder.

When I met you, you didn't know what a salad fork was or a merlot, for that

matter. But when I married you, you weren't half the woman you are today.

You've always delivered half the thighs that I prefer, but I made do.

Catherine Cryer, played by the great Renee Lawless.

You don't want to mess with her.

So, Renee, are you anything like Catherine?

No, I'm not. There's a little bit of all of us and all the characters we play

that has to be believable.

I'm like Catherine in that I'm a woman of a certain age. I don't like it when

I'm gaining weight. No woman likes it when a spouse or a boyfriend fools

And a lot of mamas have problems with the youngins. But I was raised in the

South, and I know how to bury a body.

And keep it hidden. But, I mean, I don't have her power, but I think I have her

chutzpah.

Look, can I just say this? My favorite thing.

We're in the hotel of the place that we're supposed to have an audition, and

get on the elevator to go downstairs, and Renee gets on the elevator, and I'm

looking at her, and I'm like, hi. We were like, hi, hi.

And I was like, we kind of went like, you look like you would be da -da -da.

she said, you look like you would be da -da -da. And we were both like, oh, my

God. Oh, I get to read with you. It's all high -pitched and light and

We go the next day to the audition, and she has to do the scene, and that little

soft voice, high voice, happy voice, ha -da -da, dropped into Catherine. She

said, I'm Catherine. Cry.

Baby, that voice dropped down like, that's it. All right, Brad. Come on.

Now, before we go, I just want to ask the cast, what's the one word that best

describes your fan?

Loyal.

Dedicated. Passionate. Loving and incredible.

Diehard.

Consistent.

Connected.

Patient and kind.

That's you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We want everyone to have a great night. You're going to want to tune in same

time, same time right here next week for part two. Did you know we had two parts

of the Haves and the Have Nots final cast reunion? But here's a little sneak

peek.

It's been the greatest journey of my whole life. Tuesday, the two -part final

reunion event continues.

What are you going to miss the most? Join the cast for an extraordinary look

the series' impact.

Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey. This is going to be historic television.

Black actors very rarely get an opportunity like this. And an

final farewell.

These are tears of joy and love. Thank you for your support.
