As The Chi season 6 returns for part 2 this Friday, May 10 on the Paramount+ with Showtime streamer and Sunday, May 12 linearly at 9 PM ET/PT, the network has renewed the series for a seventh season. The first half of season 6 has done quite well, making for its most-watched season yet for streaming, increasing nearly 25% over season 5. Season 7 will start production later this month in Chicago. “Lena Waithe is a generational storyteller, whose authentic and unflinching narratives in The Chi resonate deeply, offering a powerful lens into both the complexities of life in Chicago as well as the Black experience in America,” said Nina L. Diaz, the President of Content and Chief Creative Officer at Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios and Paramount Media Networks. “On the heels of a record-breaking season and ahead of this week’s return, we’re excited to provide fans with the promise of more – ensuring that they can continue to enjoy the raw, emotional stories and unforgettable cha
'Frasier' Revival Premiere Episode Descriptions Released
We are now two days away from the premiere of Paramount+’s Frasierrevival, premiering this Thursday, October 12. The streamer has released the episode descriptions for the two episodes that will kick it off. These episodes are also the ones that will get the special airing on CBS on Tuesday, October 17 at 9:15 p.m. ET/PT.
Episode 1: “The Good Father”
Following Martin’s death, Frasier returns to Boston for a college lecture and to check in on his son, Freddy—whom he quickly suspects is keeping a secret from him.
Episode 2: “Moving In”
Frasier hopes to make up for lost time with Freddy, but a disagreement over where to put a small Red Sox souvenir quickly escalates into a battle of wills between father and son.
Indeed, Martin’s death seems to be fresh, and the Red Sox are more present in Frasier’s mind again. “The Good Father” is an intentional mirror to the original series premiere, which was titled “The Good Son”. These episodes are directed by legendary director and television creator James Burrows, who was co-creator, executive producer and director of Frasier’s debut series Cheers, and directed dozens of original Frasier series episodes.
The season’s general synopsis covers his next chapter of his life as he returns to Boston with new challenges to face, new relationships to forge and an old dream or two to finally fulfill. He stars with Jack Cutmore-Scott as Frasier’s son Freddy; Nicholas Lyndhurst as Frasier’s old college buddy turned university professor Alan; Toks Olagundoye as Olivia, Alan’s colleague and head of the university’s psychology department; Jess Salgueiro as Freddy’s roommate Eve; and Anders Keith as Frasier’s nephew, Niles and Daphne’s son David.
Following the two-episode premiere, single episodes will continue to roll out weekly in the United States and Canada. Internationally, rollout will be identical, but on Fridays. “The Good Father” and “Moving In” release the day after, October 13, and each subsequent episode similarly releases the day after their domestic releases. The new series comes from writers Chris Harris and Joe Cristalli, who executive produce with Grammer, Tom Russo and Jordan McMahon. The series is produced by CBS Studios, in association with Grammer’s Grammnet NH Productions, and its look Inside the Series can be watched below.
