Tyler Perry Keeping Oprah’s Network Alive? It’s no secret that Oprah’s OWN Network was struggling in the beginning. The viewership was down and they were having a hard time connecting with audiences. Mona Scott even gave her opinion some time ago on the “Ebro In The Morning” show. She stated she was unaware of the target audience for the OWN Network. Thanks to good friend Tyler Perry I think they have figured it out. OWN network currently has four of the “Why Did I Get Married ” Creator’s series;and has ordered 20+ Episodes of each. “Oprah Winfrey’s partnership with Tyler Perry has been a tremendous success, garnering millions of viewers for OWN and setting ratings records.” More info after the jump.

Tyler Perry Keeping Oprah’s Network Alive? According to the stament below I thinks so.

Tyler Perry’s scripted series have bolstered OWN’s rise to a Top 25 cable network in prime time among women 25-54. Throughout its current season, “The Haves and the Have Nots” has averaged more than 3 million viewers and has consistently ranked as Tuesday night’s #1 telecast on television for African American households and total viewers

I think adding reality shows to the network will help increase the viewership on the OWN Network as well.Reality is a trend that seem to not be going away. People enjoy themselves on TV and they enjoy seeing people the feel they can relate to. What are your thoughts? Do you agree or Nah?
