Justine Skye, Slick Woods and More Join 'Grown-ish' Season 5

The acclaimed comedy-drama "Grown-ish" returns soon with season five, and we're already counting the days until it graces our screens. The Freeform series is a spinoff of the popular ABC comedy "Black-ish," which concluded its eight-season run earlier this year. The show follows Zoey (Yara Shahidi), the eldest daughter of Rainbow (Tracee Ellis Ross) and Andre Johnson (Anthony Anderson), as she goes off to college and realizes that adult life is not not everything it's supposed to be. While telling the story of a group of young adults, the writing deftly raises pertinent social issues regarding racism, police brutality, and more, making this an essential watch.

While renewing “Grown-ish” for the fifth season, the network announced that the next episode would see some creative changes, including “Black-ish” producer Zakiyyah Alexander and producer Courtney Lilly as new showrunners . And that's not all crossover fans can hope for: a former "Black-ish" is joining the expanded universe as a series regular. From its cast additions to release date, read on for all the details we know about "Grown-ish" season five.
