Overview
- Late in July, Netflix and Tyler Perry announced a Season 4 greenlight that reverses earlier reports that Season 3 would be the series finale.
- Season 3 has already finished filming but Netflix has not announced a release date for that season or for Season 4.
- Tyler Perry, who creates, writes, directs and executive produces the show, said the renewal was driven by a desire to keep telling the Bellarie family story.
- The series has delivered major audience numbers, with Season 2 spending multiple weeks in Netflix’s Global Top 10, which industry coverage cites as a key reason for the reversal.
- Reaction has been mixed on social platforms and review sites, with some fans celebrating the renewal and other viewers and IMDb critics posting strong negative comments about the show’s tone and content.
