TBH, when I saw who was playing John, I was leery. I still remembered Garrett M. Brown from a really awful sitcom, "What a Country," that aired in first-run syndication for one season in the mid- or late '80's. It was produced by Martin Rips and Joseph Staretski, who had produced "Three's Company;" and it was supposed to be Yakov Smirnoff's big showcase, too. IIRC, Don Knotts joined the cast about halfway through and...well...it was just awful. (It's also where Mike Scully, whom I blame to this day for ruining "The Simpsons," got his start).

I've heard of that but never seen it. That's interesting. All I've ever seen Garrett in outside of Sisters is commercials.

The last I heard of Yakov was his complaining about COVID restrictions in Branson.

I'm sitting around debating with myself if I should keep binge watching Sisters before Melodifestivalen or if I should finally start watching The Haves and the Have Nots. 🤔

If I were you, I'd keep binge-watching "Sisters." Even at its' weakest, it's still more gratifying than anything Tyler Perry has dreamed up. (Of course, YMMV, lol).

I did watch two episodes of The Haves and the Haves Not and it was very daytime soapy, except a bit shallow but somewhat entertaining. I didn't expect much tbh but nothing was as bad as the clips I've seen of Tyler Perry's shows on YouTube (but there's always time!).

But yeah, I continued on Sisters after that and now it's about 40 minutes left until MelFest.

That's because TP's scenes (on ALL his shows, not just THATHN) are like Möbius strips: they start nowhere and finish exactly in the same place.

I mean, yeah. I've only seen two episodes but they sort of start and end at the same place as they start.

I also want to somewhat address Tyler Perry's weird views on homosexuality. Does he think that if gays want to oogle weird [!@#$%^&*], they have to get their best friend into rehab and get weird about nudity to flaunt his butt to them? I'd think you'd just join a gym and be that weirdo in the corner if that's your beat.
