The promotional parody debuts tonight in anticipation of Perry's two new scripted series coming to OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.

In the clip, Madea finds Sofia on a dirt road. Sofia dives into a character monologue when Madea asks for directions to OWN.

"All my life I had to fight," says Sofia. "I had to fight the press folks; I had to fight the ratings; I had to fight them haters! Girl child, it ain't safe in a world full of cable channels."

Perry has one drama (The Haves and the Have Nots) and one comedy (Love Thy Neighbor) launching on Oprah's network on May 28 and May 29, respectively.
