Yeah her mom Gwendolyn used to be one of the Price is Right models.



But this young lady right here is definitely Kenny's daughter.

Did not expect Ray from Legends of Tomorrow to show up in that past episode :leon:

Mixed-ish trailer. The girl who plays Bow's sister is funny in the trailer, but I'm not sure I will watch.

overall this season has been a decline. one is a clear effect of kenya being gone, but the other might be overall damning to the show for the rest of its run. shows like this are hard as kids age, it was ok without zoe that first year (she never had the dope storylines anyway IMO) - the twins personalities were still hitting (they worked better when they were younger, between the growth disparity, diane having a lot of episodes where she wants to fit in and be a normal middle schooler, jack being dumb being run into the ground, they just aren't charming anymore). junior has always been hilarious, but his gap year and how that played out hasn't hit right either. they can't afford to lose him, but him just meandering and then dropping out hasn't sat right with me, that would've worked better for zoe IMO.

Yeah you can definitely see the drop off. It's hard for any show to maintain quality for 5 years, especially when you have young kids growing up like you said. Watch Devante be 5 next season :russ:. Also, bringing in long lost family members is always a sign that the end is near. That last episode had a level of finality to it, like they weren't sure if they would be back for another season. I agree about the gap year. That is definitely more of a Zoe move (she might be taking an involuntary one soon based on the first half of Grownish). Junior has been this "by the book" geek all these years now he's dropping out of school, playing the field and shackin up with broads :dead:. Why did he have to go to Howard. They could have had him and USC or any of those California schools and he could commute or live closer to home. I am interested to see where they go with season 6. Love the show, but honestly how many more "it's like this for black people" storylines can you muster?

especially since it looks like his gap year will turn into multiple.. he's making no moves to look at college or anything.. and to "keep it real" a "well to do" family should have a kid who doesn't wanna go to college... I mean they accept Jack but it would add another level to the show and family if Junior was like.. I've decided to skip college all together..


maybe have him hook up with one of the twins

I called Junior not going to school in this thread 3 months ago... without Kenya its hurting because this was his story, his family.. Don't know if the new show runner has family/experiences in the same dynamic as the show. i do look forward to the new stories for next season.

of course as the kids get older they're no longer "cute" but Devante is a waste to me right now. I mean even on full house Michelle did something.. this kid just sits there .. and by damn it... his hair makes him stand out and he just doesn't fit in with the family. I was upset they made Jr the "nanny" they gave him a girl only for him to break up with her over his brother .. not even his kid...

surprised they held the young bow episode for next season. I have mixed feelings about mixed-ish but i'll watch it and see.
