The LA Times did an interesting story on Tyler Perry in the Business section today. If you don’t know who Perry is, he’s responsible for the Madea franchise (“Diary of a Mad Black Woman”) and is on his way to becoming a mogul in entertainment. Recently, TBS bought 100 episodes of his new show “House of Payne” for $200 million. Wanting full creative control, Perry walked away from studios, produced and funded 10 episodes himself. Of course, it takes money to have such power, but I applaud him. Network execs in entertainment could use his balls, if ya know what I mean. Premiering in June on cable and showing up on FOX in the fall, the new comedy series looks like it will be reminiscent of “Family Matters” and “The Cosby Show.” They could have given the character Curtis a better toupe though.
