Black-ish has earned a no-brainer renewal over at ABC. The Kenya Barris comedy will return in the fall for a fourth season.
Creator Kenya Barris has cemented himself as one of the most prominent voices in TV. But his two pilots in contention at ABC — Felicity Huffman and Courtney Vance beltway comedy Libby & Malcolm and drama Unit Zero, with Toni Collette — have both been passed over. The studio is said to be shopping them elsewhere. And speaking of producers, original co-showrunner Jonathan Groff is leaving the series to focus on development. In his stead, Stacy Traub is joining the comedy as executive producer. She recently re-upped her overall deal with ABC Studios for another two years.
