TBS says yes – again – to Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse. Basic cable’s #1 sitcom of 2011, which debuted on Nov. 25, 2011 and averaged 2.9 million viewers, will return with 35 new episodes.
Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse will be back on Fridays this coming summer with Tasha Smith, Michael Jai White, Crystle Stewart, Kent Faulcon, and Jason Olive in starring roles.
“Tyler Perry’s shows have proven to be a popular draw for TBS on Friday nights,” stated Michael Wright, executive vice president, head of programming for TBS, TNT, and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). “We’re very happy to keep that trend going by ordering more episodes of Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse.”
The Plot: Tyler Perry’s For Better or Worse follows the ups-and-downs of marriage and dating. The show centers on Angela Williams (Smith), the owner of a successful beauty salon, and her husband of 13 years, Marcus (White). Marcus is a former professional football player who has recently partnered with Richard Ellington (Faulcon) and Joseph Jetson (Olive) on a new sports news program called C-Sports Now.
Marcus’s business relationship with Richard and Joseph is complicated, however, by the fact that Richard is dating Keisha (Haynes), Marcus’s ex-girlfriend and the mother of his teenage daughter. In addition, Joseph’s girlfriend, successful real estate agent Leslie (Stewart), is Angela’s best friend, which sometimes makes it difficult for the couples to keep their business and private lives from mingling.
