Review of The Haves and the Have Nots

I have to sit and endure this show because my wife LOVES it. The acting in this show is ridiculous, as is most of the television variations. It's amazing that every show features such laughable antics as: long awkward pauses, leading and obvious presumptuous rhetoric, horrible "play-like" back and forth discussions...if Veronica said, "The maid..." (S8E8) just ONE MORE TIME!" I mean seriously, is all the extra chatter in place just to fill up the hour? They take forever to make a point, and drag out dialogues way too long." "I'm gonna get you..." "No you're not..." "Yes...I am..." "No..."...5 minutes later...I'm gonna get you..." They beat around the bush about issues that are obvious, while asking leading questions with the kind of acting that makes them look unconvincing. Painfully irritating. Are any of the actors even held accountable for how horrible their acting is? How has this show even lasted this long?
