TV show description:
From creator Kendra Barris, the Grown-ish TV show is a spin-off of ABC‘s sitcom Black-ish. The coming-of-age comedy follows Zoey Johnson (Shahidi) as she leaves the home of her parents, Dre and Rainbow (Anderson and Ross), and heads off to college.

Pretty, popular, sociable, and more than a bit entitled, Zoey arrives at Southern California University, only to discover that spreading her wings is not as easy as she had hoped. Still, there are reminders of home at SCU, like Charlie (Cole), her dad’s Stevens & Lido colleague. Believe it or not, the mercurial oddball moonlights as an adjunct marketing professor.

At school, Zoey meets Miriam (Arlook). Although she is just a freshman, there’s nothing Miriam doesn’t know — at least to hear her tell it. Miriam seems to have plenty of attitude to spare.

Now that she is finally out, and (mostly) on her own, Zoey will find that while college can be great, the fun and excitement are not without their costs. The more she learns, the more she realizes how little she knows.

Series Finale:
Episode #105 — Grown
Bon Voyage to the Cal U Titans. Old friends and new reunite on a yacht to celebrate Andre’s graduation, but will Andre’s party be ruined by his real-world responsibilities? Meanwhile, Aaron confronts Zoey about their future.
First aired: May 22, 2024.
