‘The Upshaws’ Renewed For Final Season At Netflix

The Upshaws has been renewed for its final season at Netflix.

The final season, which is its fifth overall, is Part 7 of the show, and it will have 12 episodes. Part 6 is set to come in early 2025.

Co-creator and co-showrunner Regina Y. Hicks said in a statement, “Truly grateful to Netflix for giving us this season to once again bring the warmth and funny that we’re known for (and with this fifth and final-some closure) to our Upshaws family.”

“A heartfelt thanks to Netflix for letting us send-off The Upshaws with this fifth and final season,” said co-creator, co-showrunner and star Wanda Sykes. “We are excited to give the show and the fans a proper farewell.”

Mike Epps, Sykes, Kim Fields, Khali Spraggins, Jermelle Simon and Journey Christine star in the series.

Here’s the description of the show: Bennie Upshaw (Mike Epps), the head of a Black working class family in Indianapolis, is a charming, well-intentioned mechanic and lifelong mess just trying his best to step up and care for his family — wife Regina (Kim Fields), their two young daughters (Khali Spraggins, Journey Christine) and firstborn son (Jermelle Simon), the teenage son (Diamond Lyons) he fathered with another woman (Gabrielle Dennis) — and tolerate his sardonic sister-in-law (Wanda Sykes), all without a blueprint for success. But the Upshaws are determined to make it work, and make it to the next level, together. In this upcoming part, the Upshaws continue to ride life’s ups and downs, including new jobs, bigger dreams, health struggles and some major life surprises but still hanging on with the love that comes with family.

Executive producers alongside Hicks, Sykes and Epps are Page Hurwitz, Niles Kirchner, Annie Levine & Jon Emerson and Mark Alton Brown.
