In addition to the Motherland renewal, Lyne Renee, who plays General Alder, has been upped to series regular!
“I could not be more grateful for the chance to keep exploring the world of ‘Motherland: Fort Salem,’” Writer/Creator Eliot Laurence said in a statment. “Freeform has been such a fabulous home for us through the development process, production, post and marketing. I’m also blown away by the love we’ve gotten from our fans, whose excitement and passion played a massive part in this renewal. Thank you, witches!”
“This is great news, not just because it means I have a group of writers that have to hang out on my screen with me all day and I don’t have to be alone anymore getting weird,” Creator, Executive Producer and star Josh Thomas said of EGBO, “but because I love this show and I love these characters and I love our cast and crew and making another season is just going to be so nice.”
This year’s holiday programming “31 Nights of Halloween,” “Kickoff to Christmas” and “25 Days of Christmas,” will be back and bigger than ever. “31 Nights of Halloween” will once again feature the classics Hocus Pocus and Ghostbusters, while “25 Days of Christmas” will bring you The Santa Clause trilogy and be the cable home of Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
This year’s Valentine’s Day themed event “Love However the FF You Want” will be back in 2021, and Freeform will kick off the new “Summer Singalong,” with movies, music and the network premiere of the live action Aladdin!
Yara Shahidi‘s black-ish spinoff grown-ish will also return for the show’s fourth season, which will follow her senior year of college. Season three JUST premiered on the network.
In addition to the renewals, Freeform has ordered new show Last Summer to series.
Last Summer is an unconventional thriller that takes place over three summers—‘93, ‘94, ‘95—in a small Texas town when a beautiful and popular teen, Kate, goes missing and, seemingly unrelated, a girl, Jeanette, goes from being a sweet and awkward outlier to the most popular girl in town and, by ’95, the most despised person in America. Each episode is told from the POV of one of the two main girls (Jeanette and Kate), which will have the viewers loyalties constantly shifting as more information is revealed.
Zoey gets a big hug from her friends in this still from the mid-season premiere of grown-ish.
In the return ep, titled “Crunch Time”, junior year is here and and the gang throws a HBCU-themed Homecoming party to kick off the semester.
Zoey (Yara Shahidi) returns from her summer abroad and realizes that she has to quickly confront her feelings for Aaron (Trevor Jackson) and Luca (Luka Sabbat).
