Grown-Ish Season 4 Finale Reveals 6 Major Cast Members' Exits
Following the grown-ish season 4 finale, 6 major cast members have officially exited the series. The show is a spinoff of the ABC sitcom black-ish, which was created by Kenya Barris in 2014. The series, which followed the fun but sometimes challenging adventures of an upper-class Black family, has spawned two spin-offs. In addition to grown-ish, a prequel series titled mixed-ish ran for two seasons, following the origins of a 12-year-old Rainbow Johnson, who would grow up to be Tracee Ellis Ross' character on black-ish.

She and her newfound friends go through growing pains as they navigate love, life, friendship, and politics in the intersection between childhood and adulthood at the fictional California University of Liberal Arts.
