I absolutely loved this show since season 1, it will not be a Tuesday night with out The Fosters. Please consider a season 6!
Simply a great show. Great script, great cast, great story. Would not be Tuesday without The Fosters! Please consider a season 6! Thanks
I have watched this show since day 1 when it first aired. It is such a reality of lifes ups and downs the good and the bad. It would be ashamed to cancel this show. I even have my grandkids hooked on watching the fosters. Please dont cancel this show.
I started s5 & didn’t really enjoy it, but the last few episodes have gotten much better. I really hope it gets renewed for S6. I think the writers have gotten back on track.
I Really think there should be season 6 because it has made a good impact on my life and I wish it would keep going….all of the actors and people who put this together did a wonderful job and should keep it going
The fosters is such a ground breaking show. It’s had such a big impact on so many peoples lives including mine. Every season this show seems to cover more and more important things with what’s happening in this world. It has covered diversity, cancer, TBI’s , bullying, cancer, relationship problems and LGBT. Bradley, Peter and Joanna have done such outstanding work and I’m so proud. All the cast and actors are so amazing. Id be lost without this show, there needs to be a season 6!!!! I honestly don’t know what I would do without this show. So PLEASE renew… Read more »
It’s a great show. I think it shows diversity, and real world issues that some people don’t even know about. It needs season 6! Love this show.
I love the fosters season five is getting so good you should have a season 6
I love the Fosters. Definitely looking forward to the remainder of season 5. Season 6 should be a shoo-in.
Yes they should have a season 6 of the fosters
Yes they should definitely go for season 6 of the fosters.
Yes the fosters will be renewed for season six this year
Season 5 has been a disappoinment. Family out of control, Teen sex , and parental guidance not a factor.No family values . Sweet love story/Family drama turned ugly.
It’s so sad that we get the PC control up on here…
