The veteran comedy scores an expected back-order.
October 23, 2020
ABC announced today that six additional episodes have been ordered for the seventh season of Black-ish, which premiered this past Wednesday. The top-up is no surprise, as the long-running comedy has yet to air a season less than 23 episodes in length.
The extra episodes ordered today bring the show's Season 7 total to 21 episodes, but there is a potential that a few more could still be added as the season progresses.
Known to incorporate storylines related to real-world issues based on current events pertaining to African-Americans, the half-hour series continues to draw critical acclaim - including picking up multiple awards from the NAACP Image Awards. The show is ABC's second-longest running comedy currently on the air, and is nearing the 150-episode milestone.
Black-ish follows patriarch Andre 'Dre' Johnson, who has a beautiful wife, a job he loves, and four kids. They all live in a nice colonial home in the suburbs, but Dre wonders if success has brought too much assimilation to his African-American family.

They're topping up this season because it's going to be the last, contract negotiations are up and it's going to be too expensive to continue.

Yeah! I love this show and it is certainly better than some of the other family sitcoms on the air.

Wow! Why are so many Proud Boys so upset? I mean there's plenty of television geared to your people on TV. LOL you don't like it then don't watch it. But it looks to me that those who comment hate watch the show. you are part of your own problem. Just like your master.LOLOL!

I am shocked this show as a user rating of 2.9. I can only assume Anthony Anderson is sitting at home continually hitting 5 to achieve such a deceiving high rating. The main character is concerned that his success is making him less black. I kid you not. Don't be fooled by the 2.9 rating. The show isn't nearly that good.

As stated already, this garbage just perpetuates the phony left wing created "systemic racism" mantra which has no more validity than "gun violence."

This show is ABSOLUTELY unwatchable. It isn't even a show, it's an infomercial for the democratic party.
