Kenya Barris’ single-camera comedy series #blackAF will not be returning for a second season at Netflix. The renewal decision, announced a year ago today, has been reversed. Barris is in early conversations with the streamer to potentially turn #blackAF into a comedy movie franchise in the mold of National Lampoon’s Vacation, sources confirmed to Deadline.
#blackAF was one of several series Black-ish creator Barris developed under a mega overall deal at Netflix for his Khalabo Ink Society, which he exited late last year for a pact at ViacomCBS. In February, he teased the first series under the ViacomCBS agreement, a show examining contemporary relationships for Paramount+.
At Netflix, Barris also executive produced the Astronomy Club sketch comedy series, which ran for one season, and has the upcoming Kid Cudi adult animated music series Entergalactic.
Barris also remains actively involved in the Black-ish franchise, which has spawned three series to date: the mothership comedy,...

Netflix is rescinding another renewal.
The streaming giant is no longer moving forward with #blackAF Season 2, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Season 2 was officially ordered a year ago, but with Covid-19 bringing the TV and movie industry to a halt, there have been questions about the viability of the series.
For their part, Netflix canceled Glow Season 4 and The Society Season 2 due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic.
Still, the story may not be over for the Kenya Barris series.
THR is reporting that the semi-autobiographical sitcom is being redeveloped as a potential film franchise, and that movies are in development.
The news will undoubtedly be concerning for fans of the series, especially because the movie franchise has not officially been ordered.
When projects are in development, a number of things can change, but we'll keep you posted.

Kenya Barris says he is working harder than he ever has in his life. The writer, who added actor to his resume with #blackAF, is working on a second season of the Netflix comedy, is plotting a feature-length music about Juneteenth with Pharrell Williams and is developing a multitude of comedies, dramas, films and documentaries under his multi-million dollar Netflix deal. He also still has a hand in the Black-ish universe and is plotting one more show in that universe.
Barris talks to Deadline about the process of creating #blackAF, becoming an actor for the first time, mining his own life for comedy, his take on critiquing Black shows, how he’s getting on in the streaming universe as well as plans for his production company Khalabo Ink Society.
Inspired by Barris’ irreverent, highly flawed, unbelievably honest approach to parenting, relationships, race, and culture, #blackAF flips the traditional sitcom family on its head.

Netflix plans to stay in the Kenya Barris business: The streamer has renewed Barris’ comedy #blackAF for a second season.
#blackAF — which dropped its eight-episode first season on April 17 — stars Barris as a fictionalized version of himself, while Rashida Jones (Parks and Recreation) co-stars as his wife, Joya. The series pulls back the curtain on what it means to be a “new money” Black family trying to get it right in a modern world where “right” is no longer a fixed concept.

Kenya Barris’ #blackAF is returning for a second season at Netflix.
The Black-ish creator will once again play an exaggerated version of himself, with Rashida Jones as his wife Joya, in the comedy.
Barris is a busy fella; the renewal comes days after Deadline revealed that he was teaming up with Happy singer Pharrell Williams to develop a Juneteenth musical feature for the streaming service.
He told Deadline, “I won’t really, really, really get into it until we’re in the room because I want it to be fresh, but I definitely know I want to talk about real shit. We want it to be really special.”
