Okay, let's be real. Are we *still* talking about Black-ish season 8? Did it even happen?
Wait, Did We Miss It?
I feel like I blinked and suddenly everyone was moving on to the spin-offs. Like, *Grown-ish* and *Mixed-ish*. Was there some secret memo I missed?
The final episode aired in 2022. Seems like forever ago, right?
The Grand Finale, Or Was It?
So, here's the tea: Season 8 was the final season. I know, I know, deep breaths.
It wrapped things up, gave us some closure (maybe?), and sent the Johnsons off into the sunset. Or at least, into new adventures.
But here's my unpopular opinion: did it really need to end?
My Unpopular Opinion: It Ended Too Soon!
Don't get me wrong, I love a good series finale. But Black-ish felt like it had so much more to say.
They were tackling real issues with humor and heart. The Johnson family felt like *my* family.
And let's be honest, Dre's questionable fashion choices alone deserved at least ten more seasons.
Maybe a Reboot in 20 Years?
Hear me out: what if, in like, 20 years, they reboot Black-ish with the grandkids?
Think of the storylines! Imagine Diane as a sassy CEO, and Jack running a meme empire. That's television gold.
Until then, we're stuck re-watching old episodes. Which, let's face it, isn't the worst thing in the world.
So, No Season 8...Officially
To reiterate: there's no secret stash of unaired Black-ish episodes waiting to be discovered.
Season 8 was it. The end. Finito. Unless...
Okay, I'm just kidding (mostly). But a girl can dream, right?
But We Have the Spin-Offs! (Sort Of)
We do have Grown-ish and Mixed-ish. They're technically part of the *Black-ish* universe.
But it's not the same, is it? It's like getting a delicious-looking cupcake, only to discover it's made of kale.
I'm being dramatic. They're good shows! But nothing beats the original.
In Conclusion: We Miss the Johnsons
So, no, there's no new season of Black-ish coming out. Sad face.
But we can always revisit the old ones. And maybe, just maybe, start a petition for that grandkids reboot. Who's with me?
Let’s just remember the laughs and the moments that
made Black-ish so special.
