Grown-ish is an American comedy series that is a spin-off of the ABC show Black-ish. The standard comedy appears to follow the Johnsons’ eldest daughter Zoey portrayed by Yara Shahidi. As she attends college and embarks on her journey through life, she only finds that not everything goes her way once she leaves the comfort of her house.
Zoey Johnson, who is the Johnson family’s firstborn daughter, departs for college. As she started attending the California University of Liberal Arts and meets fresh faces. She uncovers that her adventure to adult years and separation from her family will not go as planned.
Sadly, freeform has yet to be formally renewed “Grown-ish” for the 5th season. The channel may decide to just not renew the tv show, as it has lately decided to cancel other teen-oriented shows such as “Everything’s Gonna Be Okay.”
Season 5 will still take some time to return to Freeform monitors if the tv series is revived. As the 2nd half of Season 4 has still not aired so far. A tv series like “Grown-ish” takes about a year to go through rehearsals, shoot all of the episodes, and complete production, followed by advertising and releasing the new episodes. Season 4 of “Grown-ish” originally aired in July 2021 with the 2nd half of Season 4 likely to broadcast sometime during early 2022. Implying that Season 5 would most probably make its debut in the fall of 2022 or even later.
Grown-ish Season 5 Cast
The main cast of “Grown-ish” Season 4 appears likely to return for the next season of the series. Despite the fact that some characters have finished college. Yara Shahidi as Zoey Johnson, who also serves as the series’ narrator, is expected to return, Francia Raisa as Ana Torres, Trevor Jackson as Aaron Jackson. Emily Arlook as Nomi Segal, Chloe Bailey as Jazz Forster, Jordan Buhat as Vivek Shah, Diggy Simmons as Doug Edwards, and Luka Sabbat as Luca Hall.
Sky Forster, who was previously a main character in the series, doesn’t really appear to be returning. Apart from appearing as a supporting character, actress Halle Bailey opted to leave before Season 4. Grown-ish has a broad enough setup that you might simply swap out the old characters for fresh ones. With the introduction of the athlete, and later Daniella Perkins as a rookie journalism major, it could be a way to ease into a different cast.
As only the first half of Season 4 has aired, it’s plausible that far more actors will leave for good by the end of the season. While new faces may be introduced if the tv series is revived. We’ll learn more than that when “Grown-ish” Season 4 concludes and Season 5 begins.

Grown-ish Season 5 Story
Season 4’s first half comes to an end on a climax, with Zoey and Aaron apparently not on good terms. Aaron storms off just after punching Zoey’s ex Luca at a party upon learning that he has offered her a job. Zoey then goes to his house to find him and uncovers that Aaron successfully obtained an internship certificate of completion for her. Implying that she no longer requires the job from Luca. In the meantime, Ana goes to sleep with Vivek, and Kiela played Daniella Perkins and Doug’s relationship continues to fail.
It is quite visible that in the meantime Zoey focuses on graduating college with her friends as well as figuring out what to do with Aron. We have to wait for season 5 and 2nd part of season 4 to see where the story leads all the characters. New life options are now on the frontier, from unforeseen hook-ups to late parties with the crew. Let the festivities – and the consequences – begin!
