'The Haves And The Have Nots' is back after not quite-such-an-earth-shattering Season 7 finale. It's going to be an exciting Season 8, because when it comes to HAHN, nothing is predictable. Season 8 will shed light on a number of things, starting with the aftermath of the Cryers learning of their son Wyatt's (Aaron O' Connell) death.

His mother, Katheryn who spent jail time with him, was exhausted with her son's antics and refused to pay up to the Malone, for which they cost her her own son, and knowing Jim, he wouldn't care much, now that son is gone. Wyatt had spent most of Season 7 in jail, running from the hospital and then ransacking Jim's house, while he was in the hospital.  Meanwhile, on the Young side, Candace's (Tika Sumpter) speculated pregnancy might get more screentime, and so will be Hanna's budding love life with Al. 

Oh wait, there's something else fans need to know: David Harrington's (Peter Parros) has an ensuing battle with Alissa, who was last seen on her way out of his house claiming rape. Alyssa had been stalking David to the point where she was standing naked in the fountain for hours and refusing to go home till he finally met her.

She was insistent on sexual pleasures and finally got some from David, which came as a surprise to fans when it actually happened. David's ex-wife Veronica has been having sex dreams and flashbacks about him in Season 7, so it remains to be seen whether she also plans to lure David into a trap. The synopsis for Episode 1 reads: "A shy fox sets David up, but he's faster and better." 

But at present, Veronica (Angela Robinson) is currently blackmailing her new boy toy into continuing his service — of all types — towards her. You wouldn't have forgotten how homophobic Veronica almost gunned down naked men (Colby and his gang) in her pool, who were trying to bait her anyway. On the other hand, there's a lot to unravel about Jeffrey as well. Jeffrey was having the time of his life with Madison, till sassy Colby showed up, who it was revealed, was actually Madisons' "some on the side". Veronica is not done yet, she is waiting for the right time to strike. 

There are numerous characters and infinite storylines in HAHN, so if you've been following this show from the start, then you're probably good to go. The show can be streamed online on  FuboTV. You can also watch it on Hulu + Live (free trial). Otherwise, the show airs on OWN, Tuesdays at 8 pm.
