While I am trying to come to terms with this being The Neighborhood’s final season, Calvin (Cedric the Entertainer) and Tina (Tichina Arnold) are dealing with Malcolm (Sheaun McKinney) moving away from them.
During the season finale, Malcolm moved to the beach in the hopes of getting a spinoff, but it didn’t happen. So, I was wondering if he was going to move back in with his brother, Marty (Marcel Spears), across the street from their parents, or stay in his new house.
Tonight at 8p on CBS, we find out he didn’t come home. Now, Tina is missing her baby boy and feeling like she has nothing going on in her life. Even though Marty is living a few feet away, and his baby mama, Courtney (Skye Townsend), and their daughter are there all the time. You would think her granddaughter would be enough for her, but it is not.
While she is missing her son, Calvin is getting to spend some time with his son. And Tina is jealous of that. When will she get to see her son?
She is not the only one missing her baby boy. Gemma (Beth Behrs) is trying to adjust to Grover (Hank Greenspan) going to high school. It is the first time he has not been at a school where she worked. How is she going to handle that? At least her husband, Dave (Max Greenfield), seems to be doing OK with it.
He might be OK, but I am not. I really like the changes they set up in the season premiere, so much so that I hate that this is going to be the last one. Why does it have to end when it is still so funny? Why can’t the C in CBS stand for comedy?
The good news is that The Neighborhood will be back for an 8th season. The bad news is that it will be its final one.
“The brilliant cast and creative team at THE NEIGHBORHOOD led by the incomparable Cedric the Entertainer have brought levity, laughter and poignant storylines to Monday nights for seven incredible seasons,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “THE NEIGHBORHOOD is a strong ratings performer for CBS and one of the top comedies on TV. We believe the show’s loyal fans deserve a proper farewell season full of the trademark humor and heartfelt moments that are synonymous with the series.”
The sitcom stars Cedric the Entertainer, Tichina Arnold, Max Greenfield, Beth Behrs, Sheaun McKinney, and Marcel Spears.
CBS is working on a spinoff with McKinney and Spears. I wonder what this renewal means for that show’s future.
Martin Lawrence received a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame today. He was not alone because Tracy Morgan, Tichina Arnold, Lynn Whitfield, and Steve Harvey came out to support their friend.
However, there was one person who was missing. Lawrence’s Bad Boys’ co-star Will Smith. And that is a real slap in the face. Too soon?
Yes, I posted this just for that joke. That, and congrats to the man who was honored with the 2,753rd star on the Walk of Fame.
CBS announced today that it picked up The Neighborhood for a 6th season. The Monday night sitcom stars Cedric the Entertainer, Tichina Arnold, Max Greenfield, Beth Behrs, Sheaun McKinney, Marcel Spears, and Hank Greenspan, and it has been one of CBS’s biggest comedies since its debut. Therefore, the renewal makes sense.
Plus, the renewal is a nice present for the cast and crew to get as they film their 100th episode. Congrats!
The Neighborhood joins Ghosts, Young Sheldon, the FBIs, The Equalizer, and Fire Country on the 2023-2024 schedule.
In honor of Little Shop of Horrors Day, here is Tisha Campbell in Tichina Arnold being best friends in the movie before they were the same thing on the TV show Martin. Don’t you love seeing the 16-year-olds singing and dancing in that 1986 musical?
