Tyler Perry’s Have & Have Nots + Love Thy Neighbor Summer Season Return! Wednesday 01 July, 2015

Can I just share with you all I love being media in Atlanta? It was a special press day as OWN Network highlighted Tyler Perry’s two successful shows, The Have and the Have Nots + Love Thy Neighbor with the return of these show summer seasons. I love that Tyler makes sure his hometown city always gets a special press luncheon to welcome each season. I am greatful to always be invited as myself and other Atlanta media outlets get an opportunity to meet some of the stars of each shows and speak on the new seasons!
The OWN NETWORK + Tyler Perry have notice that the Atlana area has always provided so much love and press coverage they make sure to give the city press extra attention, as they also shoot these shows here.
The cast of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network’s, “The Haves and the Have Nots,” and “Love Thy Neighbor,” held a private press reception at Maggiano’s Little Italy in Buckhead, Atlanta, GA to present seasons 2b of their respective shows. Angela Robinson, Crystal Fox and Gavin Houston from “The Haves and the Have Nots” and Patrice Lovely, Kendra C. Johnson and Palmer Williams from “Love Thy Neighbor” gave members of the press an exclusive sneak peek of their shows and conducted a Q&A following the previews.

Tyler Perry sure knows how to create television shows (and movies). Both of these shows are polar opposites, The Have and the Have Nots are the shocking tele-drama series that will always have you at the edge of your seat, while Love Thy Neighbor is a funny sitcom with lite drama but a fun laugh track. Both of the shows are a big hit on the OWN Network, and have return for the summer to continue where they left off on their respective series.
The cast of both shows are very close amongst each other and have a family-like vibe. Even across the show platform, the actors for both shows are network buddies and very light hearted and humble. They all each answered the questions from the press with laughter and realitability as they are celebrating their continuious success on another season.

Crystal Fox + Angela Robinson have a tight bond even off set
I love this shot because it geniunely shows how close the castmates really are. Although Crystal Fox + Angela Robinson are foes on their show, in reality they have became really great friends and work buddies. They all geuninely enjoy working with each other!
The cas of Love Thy Neighbor are also close like family as well and stress the fact that they are happy to be a highly rated sitcom series.
FYI The Have and The Have Nots is OWN Network’s #1 rated scripted television show series on the channel!
OWN’s “Love Thy Neighbor” moves to Friday nights at 9pm ET/PT beginning June 26, and “The Haves and the Have Nots,” kicks off Tuesday, June 30 with an explosive season premiere.

I have not known about this show till today. I seldom watch TV these days, just don’t have time for it.
These shows are both new to me, but they sound great! I’ll have to check them out. And it looks like you had a fabulous time!
I love that we get to go to so many media events here if I have to move I will miss that the most. I was invited to this event but didn’t go because I have never watched an episode of either show I would be so lost lol
I have not seen these shoes before! What a great media day you were able to attend.
beautiful pics! I have never seen these shows but the haves and the have not’s have always looked interesting. Tyler perry and Oprah are an unstoppable combination
This looks like such a fun event! We started blogging after we moved out of atlanta but can’t wait to get back to there as media 🙂
What a job you have! I bet watching these TV shows is never the same if you’ve met the stars yourself.
Wow they sure treat the media right! What a fun event to attend. I am so jealous, I see all these bloggers attending awesome events and I’m out in the burbs unable to get to em. Looks like a blast!!
It looks like a fun event. So cool that you got to meet the cast.
what a fun event so cool ,beautiful pictures the shows was new to me
This looks like a really fun and interactive launch. I’ll check out this 2 shows.
Wow, what an awesome job! I’m not jealous at all ;-). I love Tyler Perry so I’m not sure why I haven’t seen either of those shows yet. I’ll have to check them out this season!
You so lucky, you get to attend amazing events! I’m a huge Tyler Perry fan. I watched all his movies.
Girl I love Tyler Perry and all his movies, I do not get much here in the UK but when I do I binge on them. Such a lovely man, his movies and shows always teaches us something.
I haven’t heard of either of these shows before. It’s great that you got to see everyone in person, cool experience for sure!
I don’t have watch Love Thy Neighbor but I do watch The Have and Have Nots. Crazy start to the season, but not surprised. Awesome you got to go to the event. Love Maggianos.
I have to admit I am a TV junkie and I love “Love Thy Neighbour” You are so lucky that you got to attend the event. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like a fun night. Must have been a real thrill for fans of the show!
That’s a great show with a great cast, too. I would definitely catch the sitcom.
This looks like so much fun. I love how they really show the press love in ATL.
I love anything from Tyler Perry. I will definitely be trying to find some quiet time to watch TV this summer.
I love coming to Atlanta for media events. They are a special kind of fly for real. I just covered an event their in June with Zane. Looks like a great event.
What a great event! I really want some Maggiano’s now. I remember one of the cast members from years ago here in LA when she was trying to make it. Every time I see her now, it makes me smile. So happy she’s one of the few who made it.
Looks like a fab event! And the food looked delicious!
I wish I lived in a bigger city. You always seem to have great events!
This looks like a great event. I wish we had more events like this in DC. We have so many restrictions that it turns away TV shows & movies from filming in our area.
That’s what I call showing serious love! Tyler Perry still keeps it real and hasn’t forgotten about those who got him to where he is. Love THAHN but haven’t watched it in awhile. Awesome event recap!
What a neat event. It’s great that Tyler Perry shows his hometown love.
I honestly don’t watch a lot of TV so I’ve never seen an episode of the show lol. I have heard lots of great things though. Glad you had a great time.
I love both of these shows. I don’t miss an episode. They are awesome shows and I’m glad they are both back.
