An order of 100 episodes was later requested by TBS. A cable record for sitcom airings was broken with 5.2 and 5.8 million for the two premiere episodes on TBS on June 6, 2007. However, the audience declined to 4.3 million as of the week ending September 30, 2007 and 2.260 and 2.099 as of May 19, 2010. The principal cast remained the same ( with the exception of Lance Gross being added ), led by LaVan Davis. The original format of the series centred around C.J. ( Allen Payne ) and his family moving in with his Aunt Ella and Uncle Curtis ( Cassi Davis and LaVan Davis ). Robinne Lee had a recurring guest stint in Season 1 -- 2 as Malik and Jazmine 's principal, Nicole Jamieson, whom C.J. soon began dating. Rochelle Aytes originally portrayed Nicole Jamieson in the test pilot episodes as Malik 's math teacher. In the test run, Ella and Curtis were originally C.J. 's parents, but in its televised format, Calvin is their son and C.J. their nephew. Despite his top billing, Allen Payne is not considered the main actor of the series, especially due to his long absence in the fifth season. The show was recorded in front of a live studio audience but sometimes used a laugh track. At the beginning of the fifth season, China Anne McClain ( Jazmine ) and Denise Burse ( Claretha ) were removed from the series. The characters were written out, with Jazmine going away to a school for gifted children in North Carolina and Claretha marrying a prince and moving away. In real life, McClain and Burse left the series for undisclosed reasons. In the beginning of Season 6, both McClain and Burse returned. Some of the cast members of Tyler Perry 's House of Payne were on The Mo'Nique Show in October 2009. Beginning with the seventh season, China Anne McClain appeared infrequently due to her work schedule for A.N.T. Farm. Denise Burse was no longer credited as a regular cast member ; she appeared in a recurring role. Larramie `` Doc '' Shaw, who portrayed Malik, appeared infrequently after the sixth season. This was due to Shaw 's work schedules for The Suite Life on Deck and Pair of Kings. He remained a cast member throughout the series. Tyler Perry directed every episode of the first 5 seasons. Throughout Season 6, each episode was directed by actress Kim Fields or her mother Chip Hurd. Tyler Perry directed some of the episodes in seasons 7 and 8 while other episodes were directed by Kim Fields, Chip Hurd, and producer Roger M. Bobb. During the first 5 seasons, the show was rated TV - PG but due to a rapid increase of strong language and mature content ( particularly sexual ), later episodes are rated TV - 14. On September 28, 2011, TBS ordered 42 episodes. Newer episodes have been aired on TBS since October 21, 2011 with season 8, and concluded the series with a total of 254 episodes. The show aired its final two episodes on August 10, 2012. On January 30, 2017, a spin - off follow - up series entitled The Paynes was ordered by Oprah Winfrey Network. It will follow Ella and Curtis Payne as they enjoy retirement in Florida only to get caught in a real estate deal that will turn their lives upside down. The series was greenlighted for 38 episodes and premiered in early 2018.

He is often referred to as Uncle Curtis by his nephew C.J., his nephew 's wife Janine, and their children, Malik and Jazmine. Curtis is known for his hackneyed jokes, overly loud delivery, and acting like a negative racial stereotype. He is overweight and has fainted once from a blocked artery, but he ignored the diet his wife Ella set for him, and is unable to stay away from his usual fatty foods. A noticeable running gag is when he jokingly pushes Ella to the side with one arm when he wants to go by, she usually lands on the sofa. Despite his immaturity in this matter, his maturity and responsibility are apparent in his job as the chief of the local fire department. In one episode, his middle name was revealed as Booker T. In the sixth season, Curtis was forced to retire which left him depressed and humiliated for a period of time ; he eventually embraced it and his nephew C.J. took over his old job. LaVan Davis won an NAACP Image Awards in 2008 for Outstanding Actor In A Comedy Series for this role. In the first part of the series finale, `` The Call Back '', CJ asks Curtis to come out of retirement to oversee three stations that CJ runs. At first Curtis refuses to do it, and yells at CJ saying how they already forced him into retirement, and that he was n't going back, but at the end of the episode, after talking with Ella, he decided to return. Ella Payne ( née Ella Williams ) ( known as Ella Williams in episode `` Til Payne Do We Part '' ) ( Cassi Davis ), is Curtis 's wife. She is a stay - at - home mother and the voice of reason. Curtis has been known to take advantage of Ella 's good nature -- and to be punished for it. Ella is the family 's religious voice and the glue that holds it together. A good cook, she had a restaurant service in one episode. She is quick to offer emotional and moral support to everyone in the family, such as when Janine returned home. In the fifth season, she briefly worked in retail. In Season 6, she quits to go back to school. Ella graduated from college and finally got her degree in Season 7. It is revealed that her middle name is Naomi. She tries to keep the family at peace the best she can, whether it 's big or small. In the Season 8 episode `` RIP : Rest in Payne '', she keeps complete faith for her son Calvin, when she hears that he got shot in C.J. and Janine 's home. She loves her family and wants her husband to keep her safe and stand by her which he does. Clarence James ( C.J. ) Payne, Jr. ( Allen Payne ) is Curtis and Ella 's nephew. C.J. and his family moved into the home of his Uncle Curtis and Aunt Ella when their own house burned down after his wife Janine accidentally started a fire while under the influence of drugs. C.J. is the father of Malik, Jazmine, Jayden, and Hayden Payne. These last two are the twin son and daughter born to Janine and C.J. after they reconciled and remarried. In the fourth season, C.J. found out he was adopted. He works at the firehouse with Curtis. At the end of the fifth season, he, Janine, and the twins moved to Chicago, but they returned in the sixth season after he was offered Curtis ' job, and the family moved in next to Curtis and Ella. Despite being angry with and hostile towards Janine upon her return, C.J. never stopped loving her. In the early seasons, C.J. often has difficulty enforcing discipline with his children, but it is apparent that he is slightly more strict and hot - headed, often jumping to the wrong conclusions. In the Season 6 episode `` Who 's Your Daddy Now ? '', C.J. finally met his real father who happened to be white, making C.J. biracial. In the seventh season, he was promoted to fire chief commissioner, and also became the boss of Janine and Roland in the public relations department. C.J. was portrayed as Curtis and Ella 's son in the series ' original format, but his character was changed to being their nephew. Calvin Payne ( Lance Gross ) is Ella and Curtis 's college - age son who rarely attends the same courses Curtis often complains about financing. Calvin liked to think of himself as a player until he married Miranda. Like his cousin C.J., Calvin spends much time working with Curtis at the firehouse until he becomes a partner at the barbershop. In the fifth season, he gets a job working for the same company as Mercedes and she accidentally kisses him twice : once while they are chaperoning Malik and Alexandra 's date ; the other, after Calvin has a fight with Miranda. He finds out that he has a son, Calvin Jr., from his former girlfriend Tracy. He and Miranda are expecting a child when she decides they should separate, but they agree to try counseling. They get stuck in an elevator and solve their problems with help from an `` elevator lady '' Edi, who turns out to be Dr. Marcos, the marriage - retreat counselor. Calvin was arrested for back child support, but was bailed out of jail before the birth of his child with Miranda in the episode Payneful Resolution Resolution. In the seventh season, Calvin briefly had a job as a manager of a supermarket. He then started working in the public relations department with C.J., Janine and Roland in Season 8. Calvin is the only main character who was originally not included in the show. In the season 8 episode `` God Bless the Paynes '', Calvin gets shot by a man who had harassed Miranda. The man saw the shooting as a way to get revenge at Calvin for beating him up. Calvin is later found by Janine and is rushed to the hospital in `` Do or Die ''. He survives, but with serious injuries. In the series finale, `` All 's Well '', his wife, Miranda, demands a divorce. The very last scene shows Calvin throwing a vase of flowers at the wall, and the series ends with the camera zoomed in on broken glass and rose petals. Malik Payne ( Larramie `` Doc '' Shaw ) is C.J. and Janine 's college - aged son. He is a young adult whose interest in young women in his class is so extreme that he 'll resort to desperate measures, such as trying out for the cheerleading squad, just to associate with them. Initially, he was often bullied in school as a result of his mother 's drug problems. As a result, he is reluctant to welcome her back to the household. It is hinted that he is allergic to peanuts and knows how to cut hair. Beginning with the sixth season, Malik has appeared infrequently, due to Larramie Shaw 's work schedule, as he also starred on The Suite Life on Deck on Disney Channel and Pair of Kings on Disney XD. His absence is incorporated into the storyline, as he goes to the ROTC during Season 6 and off to college during Season 7, which is a major continuity error as he advanced from elementary school to college in 4 years. As he prepared to go to college, C.J., Calvin, Curtis, and Floyd bought him three boxes of condoms because they were sure he would be experimenting with sex in college. His sister Jazmine was upset about him leaving for college. While in college, he dates a girl named Summer ( Makeda Declet ). Malik then marries Summer just that they can have sex. Summer then wants a divorce from Malik to transfer to a college in New England. But since Malik and Summer have only been married for a few weeks, they are qualified for an annulment and that 's how their marriage ended. ( Episodes 1 - 239 ) Jazmine Payne ( China Anne McClain ) is C.J. and Janine 's daughter. She constantly feels invisible and acts out to get her father 's attention while her mother is in rehab. At one point, Jazmine had a brief crush on Malik 's friend Kevin.

She is also known to have sarcastic comments and sly plans to get what she wants. For undisclosed reasons, China Anne McClain was written out of the series during the fifth season, which made her the only cast member to not appear in Season 5. She was re-introduced into the series when she returned in the sixth season. It is hinted that she has a fear of mimes that wear hats. On the premiere of the seventh season, she is 12 years old, and Janine lets her wear lip gloss, and she falls in with the wrong crowd.

Angel was also known as the best firefighter as evidenced by her several awards and medals. When the guys first meet her they assumed she was going to be a man ( Curtis had read the `` O '' of her middle name with Angel, making it appear as `` Angelo '' ) and threw water on her as a joke. The character has not been seen or mentioned since Season 4. Bart Holmes ( Bart Hansard ) was the co-worker of Curtis, C.J., Calvin, Keenan and Angel.

Thompson ) is Curtis and Ella 's recently acquired foster child. Deshawn comes from a broken home, and was initially hostile towards the Paynes, as he has had trouble with foster homes in the past.

Setting Locations in Atlanta, Georgia include the Payne 's home, a firehouse located across the street from the Paynes ' house, a barbershop, the help center, and the schools Malik and Jazmine attend. The Payne home is a one - story building, and 5 rooms are featured throughout the series : Curtis and Ella 's bedroom, Malik and Jazmine 's shared bedroom, the spare bedroom ( which was Calvin 's until he moved out ), the kitchen, and the living room, and the outside patio. Calvin, C.J. and Janine 's rooms were never seen. The only part of the firehouse seen on camera was its day room. The firehouse and its characters were phased out around Seasons 3 and 4. The barbershop is a setting often used from Seasons 2 - 5, and it is similar to that of Ice Cube 's Barbershop movies. Miranda and Calvin 's condo was added. The living room was the only room that was shown. C.J. and Janine 's house is another setting added on to the series. The kitchen and the living were always seen on camera.

This series reran in broadcast syndication on the Fox, My Network TV, and The CW affiliations. Caribbean Broadcasting Corporation, began airing reruns of Tyler Perry 's House of Payne on CBC TV - 8, Barbados in 2012. House of Payne was the only situation comedy to be sold into broadcast syndication for the 2008 -- 2009 television season. BET began airing re-runs in November 2015. Madea connections Tyler Perry 's claim to fame is with the popularity of character Madea, who has appeared in numerous Tyler Perry plays and their film adaptations. When the series debuted on TBS in June 2007, Perry made a guest appearance as Madea. Actor David Mann reprised his Mr. Brown role, and Keke Palmer returned as Nikki, a bully who stole $20 worth of Malik 's lunch money over a period of time, money which Madea, Nikki 's foster mother, used at a casino. Perry returned as Madea for a Christmas episode of the show on December 5, 2007. Perry again returned as Madea to act as Curtis 's wife on March 5, 2008. She has appeared in one episode every season, save seasons 4 and 5. She is one of Curtis ' arch enemies. In the series, Janine 's drug problem and going to rehab are possible references to Diary of a Mad Black Woman. The events of the episodes `` Sad, Sad, Leroy Brown '' parts 1 and 2 came directly before the movie Meet the Browns, when Brown learns his father has died. The events of the episode `` Weeping May Endure for a Night '' happened somewhere in the middle, directly after the funeral and the reading of the will, where Brown found out that his father left him a broken - down house which Brown turned into a retirement home. Even though in the episode `` Weeping May Endure for a Night '', the Paynes claim to have attended the funeral of Brown 's father, in Meet the Browns, they are nowhere to be seen. This may be because Lance Gross, who plays Calvin Payne in the series, plays a character named Michael in the film and LaVan Davis, who plays Curtis Payne, plays a bus driver. Curtis claimed Brown made them wait in the cemetery for two hours while he gave his father a tour of Atlanta ( his last request ), but in the movie, Brown stayed the entire time. The episodes serve as a backdoor pilot to Tyler Perry 's Meet the Browns, a spin - off of the film and play as well as House of Payne. Meet the Browns crossovers There have been crossovers on House of Payne from Meet the Browns : In the episode `` I Can Cry If I Want To '', Brown attended Curtis 's 50th birthday party and stresses the Paynes out while he is there. In the episode `` Sad, Sad, Leroy Brown ( Part 1 ) '', when Brown 's house burnt down and he gets kicked out of Cora 's best friend 's house. He stays at the Paynes ' residence, much to Curtis 's dismay and soon becomes a pestering houseguest. In the episode `` Sad, Sad, Leroy Brown ( Part 2 ) '', when the Paynes tries to kick Brown out of the house, Brown claimed that Curtis broke his back, but Curtis knows the truth that Brown 's back was not in pain, and he only faked it to get the Paynes to let him stay with them. However, Ella believes Brown and insisted on him staying with them until his back gets better. In the episode `` Weeping May Endure for a Night '', Brown, Cora, and Will come by the Paynes ' residence after Pop Brown 's funeral. Brown is upset because Pop Brown left him a run - down house which makes Brown think his daddy hates him until he realizes that Pop Brown wanted him to open up a retirement home. In the episode `` Meet the Christmas Spirit '' ( Meet the Browns ), Curtis and Ella Payne drop in for a visit at the hospital to put on a play for the children. In the episode `` Oh Christmas Payne '', Brown and Cora drop in for a visit. In the episodes `` What You Know About Me '' and `` Payneful Divorce '', Cora 's former high school student, Milo Jackson, attended the same college as Malik.
