Kimmie (Williams) is a part of that, since Horrace wants to marry her. Kimmie accepts Horrace's proposal, wanting a better life for herself, but it sets up a different dynamic that will play out throughout Beauty in Black season 2 and lead to shifting character relationships.

Our Take On Beauty In Black's Return

It's Very Watchable

The Bellaries in a hospital lobby in Beauty in Black

For a prolific creator, everyone has their favorite Tyler Perry movie and show. Straw looks to continue along those lines as a traditional thriller that will likely pack a few surprises. Beauty in Black, though, underlines the fact that a wild soap can catch on with audiences, because something is comforting in the sense that just about anything can happen.
