THR writes that the elder Johnsons will “move to a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood of Los Angeles” and it’s there that they’ll “meet characters who represent the old and new faces of the community as they try to make it work as a married couple again.”
“Black-ish” creator Kenya Barris will write and executive produce the new series.
Meanwhile, season 7 of “Black-ish” is set to air on ABC on October 4. “Mixed-ish” can also be found on ABC, while Freeform airs “Grown-ish.”
