Same thing happens in other sitcoms. Get over it.
The problem I have with his stuff is it can go from funny, to wayyy to serious in two seconds.
Great example from just now: I have the tv on but I'm not watching it, I sit down for a snack and Meet The Browns is on. So I'm watching and Leroy Brown is in the hospital with a friend that's there for a job interview only he's in the bathroom so Brown has to cover for him. The interviewer says he must be so and so and he replies that he's Brown, the interviewer replies that he can see that but that they don't discriminate there.
Not hilarious by any means but you get the idea.
Very next scene a 15 year old girl sneaks out with her friend to a frat party, they show her with a guy friend brining her home and she's slightly tipsy. The guy friend goes back to get the girl friend because she's still at the party, next thing you hear a loud noise and the girl friend comes out from a building and she's crying, bleeding, and her clothes are messed up, apparently some guy attacked her.
How the do you go from a silly race joke, to a girl getting assaulted? I've seen them do that a bunch of times on House Of Payne, it's ing crazy.

I hate his shows too but only because I'm racist.
Serious social commentary mixed with humor was a staple in the 70's sitcom hey-day.
Not that Tyler Perry's shows likely have anything on Good Times or All in the Family, but I guess I appreciate the intentions.
I can't stand any of his , and I've given it a try too...
He is one very successful brother either way you look at it.
I'm not racist. I'm bagist.
Tyler Perry sucks.
It's all about Quan y not Quality with him. Every time I turn around, there's another Perry show or Perry movie coming out.
Every one of them makes like 20mm+ opening weekend too. This it terrible tbh
More power to him. Didn't he get like a $100 million contract for like 5 more seasons of meet the browns or whatever?
He's Hollywood's second highest earning man behind James Cameron, according to Forbes.
Ranking second, behind Cameron, is Tyler Perry. The self-made millionaire is a force to be reckoned with in movies and on television. Last year his films I Can Do Bad All By Myself and Why Did I Get Married Too grossed a combined $112 million in the U.S. He also produces the TBS shows Meet the Browns and House of Payne. Between June 2009 and June 2010, Perry earned $125 million.

I listen to Lady Gaga while I study.
I can't lie and not say that I haven't seen a couple of episodes and parts of some of his movies. Same ol regurgitated crap that would be considered racist if not produced by him.
^ me too
I thought you were gonna name the thread:
Tyler Perry's - I hate Tyler Perry
Tyler's cool in my book.
it's just his style... that's how everything he does is like his movies. i like him though
Too bad, ya got me for 4 more years.
that homie. I moved!
I'll get the last laugh when I'm sitting in the White House.
only tyler durden.
I wouldn't have a problem admitting it. I do occasionally watch House Of Payne, where he does the same thing. It's really uncomfortable to go from laughing to something that couldn't be more serious.
I also saw some of a movie that was on the other day that was a TP movie.
Anyone seen the Tyler Perry episode of the Boondocks yet?
