It’s time for your favorite Indianapolis family to say goodbye: The Upshaws will end with Part 7, which will consist of 12 episodes. The sitcom’s farewell run will air after Part 6, which will debut in early 2025.

Creators and executive producers Regina Hicks and Wanda Sykes tell Tudum that they’re happy to give the Indiana clan a proper send-off. “Truly grateful to Netflix for giving us this season to once again bring the warmth and funny that we’re known for (and with this fifth and final — some closure) to our Upshaws family,” Hicks tells Tudum.

Adds Sykes, who also stars in the series, “A heartfelt thanks to Netflix for letting us send off The Upshaws with this fifth and final season. We are excited to give the show and the fans a proper farewell.”

The Upshaws follows Bennie Upshaw (star and executive producer Mike Epps), the head of a Black working-class family in Indianapolis and a charming, well-intentioned mechanic. He’s a lifelong mess just trying his best to step up and care for his family — wife Regina (Kim Fields), their two young daughters (Khali Spraggins, Journey Christine) and firstborn son (Jermelle Simon), and the teenage son Kelvin (Diamond Lyons) he fathered with another woman (Gabrielle Dennis) — and tolerate his sardonic sister-in-law Lucretia (Sykes), all without a blueprint for success. But the Upshaws are determined to make it work and make it to the next level, together. 

Part 5, which launched in April, ended with Lucretia and her fiancé, Frank (Lamont Thompson), deciding at the last minute to skip their wedding and move to Atlanta to get away from her meddling family. Following the happy couple’s departure, Bennie and Regina return home, where they discover that Kelvin’s mom, Tasha, who’s having a hard time, moved into their basement without telling them. In the upcoming Part 6, scheduled to debut next year, the Upshaws continue to ride life’s ups and downs: new jobs, bigger dreams, health struggles, and some major life surprises. Still, they’re hanging on with the love that comes with family.
