Black-ish (stylized as black•ish and black-ish) is an American sitcom television series created by Kenya Barris. It premiered on September 24, 2014, and has run for seven seasons on ABC.[1][2] Black-ish follows an upper class African-American family led by Andre 'Dre' Johnson (Anthony Anderson) and Rainbow Johnson (Tracee Ellis Ross). The show revolves around the family's lives, as they juggle several personal and sociopolitical issues. The show also features the characters Zoey Johnson (Yara Shahidi), Andre Johnson, Jr. (Marcus Scribner), Jack Johnson (Miles Brown), and Diane Johnson (Marsai Martin).[3]

In later seasons, the characters of Josh Oppenhol (Jeff Meacham), Ruby Johnson (Jenifer Lewis), Charlie Telphy (Deon Cole), and Leslie Stevens (Peter Mackenzie) were promoted to series regulars, while the character of Earl Johnson (Laurence Fishburne) makes recurring appearances.[4][5]

Throughout its run, Black-ish has received critical acclaim. The show has received Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for Outstanding Comedy Series, and a TCA Award for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy. Meanwhile, Tracee Ellis Ross has received individual praise, winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress.[6] The show also ranks relatively highly among shows broadcast by ABC in terms of television season ratings, and ranks among the top ten in the United States for estimated total audience size.[7]

In May 2020, ABC renewed the series for a seventh season,[8] which premiered on October 21, 2020.[9] Ahead of its seventh season premiere, an hour-long Election-themed special was aired on October 4, 2020.[10] In May 2021, ABC renewed the series for an eighth and final season,[11] which premiered on January 4, 2022 with consist of 13 episodes.[12]

The show's success has also prompted a spin-off titled Grown-ish, which stars Shahidi as her character travels to college.[13] In May 2019, ABC ordered a short-lived prequel series, Mixed-ish, centered on young Bow and her biracial family in the 1980s.[14]

Main article: Grown-ish

The 23rd episode of the third season, "Liberal Arts", functioned as a backdoor pilot for a proposed spin-off of the same title, starring Yara Shahidi as her character, Zoey Johnson, goes to college away from the family. Other cast members in the pilot and proposed series were Chris Parnell, Mallory Sparks, Matt Walsh, and Trevor Jackson.[51][52]

In early May 2017, ABC passed on the pilot, but its sister channel Freeform commenced negotiations to move the project there.[53] On May 19, 2017, Freeform officially ordered 13 episodes of the spin-off, now under the tentative title College-ish.[13] In August 2017, the series changed its title to Grown-ish, and added Francia Raisa, Jordan Buhat and Chloe x Halle as cast members.[54] The series's pilot premiered on January 3, 2018. Parnell and Jackson reprised their roles from the backdoor pilot, while Emily Arlook was also added as Nomi, replacing the character Miriam played by Mallory Sparks.[55] The series has been renewed for a second season.[56] Also it was renewed for a third season on January 30, 2019.[57] On January 17, 2020, the series was renewed for a fourth season.[58]

On May 2, 2019, it was announced that a second spin-off, now titled Mixed-ish had been ordered to series by ABC. In lieu of this, the May 7 episode of season five would be shelved until next season. The episode, titled "Becoming Bow", would follow a young Bow and her family.[14] The series was renewed for a second season on May 21, 2020.[8] In May 2021, the series was canceled after two seasons.[59]

Notes[]

  1. ^ Credited as ABC Studios through season 6
  2. ^ Twenty-four episodes were produced for season 4, but the thirteenth produced episode (titled "Please, Baby, Please") was shelved by ABC due to its controversial content, hence only 23 episodes were aired. "Please, Baby, Please" later debuted on Hulu on August 10, 2020.
  3. ^ A total of 21 episodes were produced for the seventh season: a two-part special episode, which aired on October 4, 2020, before the season premiere, and another nineteen contributing towards the regular season, which officially premiered on October 21, 2020.
