Family Reunion is coming back for a final season at Netflix. Filming is now underway on the multi-cam sitcom. While it’s technically the show’s third season, due to the way the show releases onto Netflix, we’ll be referring to it as the fifth season. Here’s what we know so far.

Created by Meg DeLoatch, the series first debuted on Netflix back in July 2019 and has been released onto Netflix over the course of 5 parts (one of which was a Christmas special) with the most recent 7 episodes landing in August 2021. Family Reunion has scooped a number of awards and award nominations including a Primetime Emmy nomination.

So let’s run through some of the key announcements that came from the renewal back in October 2021:

  • The show has been given a 10-episode final season order – we’re expecting these to drop all at once or in two halves.
  • Adrienne Carter and Arthur Harris, who wrote on previous seasons, have been promoted to showrunners and executive producer.
  • Meg DeLoatch will still be involved with the show as an executive producer.
  • Loretta Devine, Tia Mowry-Hardrict, Richard Roundtree,  Anthony Alabi, Talia Jackson, Isaiah Russell-Bailey, Cameron J. Wright, and Jordyn Raya James are all set to return.

The show has been one of the few successes Netflix has had in the genre which has typically done well on networks like CBS and ABC. Fuller House is still Netflix’s most successful multi-cam sitcom so far with a slew of other multi-cam sitcoms failing to get beyond season 1 including Country Comfort, The Crew, and Mr. Iglesias.

When is family reunion season 5

The McKellans are a family that celebrates who they are and knows the importance of having one another’s back.

By Ryan VillarrealOct 28, 2022

From the creator of Family Matters comes a sitcom about a multigenerational family learning the value of community, faith and sticking together.

In Part 5 of Family Reunion, the McKellans welcome a new member and a different set of challenges. They test each other’s patience but, through it all, share a lot of laughter and ultimately find support from one another.

Family Reunion features Emmy winner Loretta Devine as Amelia “M’Dear” McKellan, the matriarch who knows best and reminds anyone who forgets it.

Release date

Family Reunion Part 5 will be available on Netflix Oct. 27.

Cast

In addition to Devine (Grey’s Anatomy, Waiting to Exhale), the cast of Family Reunion Part 5 includes Tia Mowry (Sister, Sister, The Game), Anthony Alabi (Black-ish, Pee-wee’s Big Holiday), Talia Jackson (Station 19, The Prank), Cameron J. Wright (Tall Girl, Sofia the First), Jordyn Raya James (Homecoming, Kids React), Richard Roundtree (Shaft, 413 Hope St.) and Jasun Jabbar Wardlaw Jr. (BMF, Atlanta). Read the cast guide for more information.

Plot

A few years ago, Moz (Alabi) and Cocoa (Mowry) McKellan moved from Seattle to Columbus, Georgia, to raise their children and have been staying with Moz’s parents, M’Dear (Devine) and Jeb (Roundtree).

Part 5 begins with the birth of Moz and Cocoa’s fifth child, Skye, as their oldest, Jade (Jackson) prepares for college. Their other children are growing up fast: Shaka is off at a prestigious boarding school in Massachusetts, while Mazzi (Wright) and Ami (James) are still at home keeping Moz and Cocoa on their toes.

Sleep-deprived and losing steam, Cocoa and Moz try to spice up their marriage, while at the same time, helping Cocoa’s sister, who’s raising her son, Tyson (Wardlaw), on her own. Meanwhile, Jeb faces a major decision about his health. M’Dear continues to reign over all, reminding her family to have faith in God and, when in doubt, follow her example. Part 5 culminates with the McKellans coming together to confront a long-standing injustice.

Setting

Family Reunion Part 5 is set in Columbus, Georgia.
