The end is officially in sight for The Upshaws. Netflix has released the official trailer and key art for Part 7, marking the final season of the long-running family comedy led by Mike Epps, Kim Fields, and Wanda Sykes.
Created by Regina Hicks and Wanda Sykes, who also serve as showrunners, The Upshaws centers on Bennie Upshaw (Epps), a well-meaning but perpetually messy mechanic trying to keep his Black working-class family afloat in Indianapolis. Alongside his wife Regina (Fields), their children, and his sharp-tongued sister-in-law Lucretia (Sykes), Bennie has spent six-plus seasons figuring it out without a blueprint—leaning on humor, love, and resilience along the way.
The Upshaw kids round out the household, with Khali Spraggins as Aaliyah, Journey Christine as Maya, Jermelle Simon as firstborn son Bernard, and Diamond Lyons as Kelvin, the teenage son Bennie shares with Gabrielle Dennis, who appears as Kelvin’s mother, Tasha Lewis. Together, the ensemble has anchored the sitcom’s mix of heart, humor, and everyday chaos throughout its seven-part run.
In the final 12 episodes, the Upshaws face a fresh wave of life changes: new jobs, bigger dreams, health challenges, and a few major surprises. Through it all, the series promises to stay grounded in what it’s always done best—showing a family riding the highs and lows together, no matter how complicated things get.
With 60 total episodes, The Upshaws will end as the third-longest-running Netflix original multi-cam comedy, behind The Ranch (80 episodes) and Fuller House (75 episodes)—a notable milestone for a series that quietly built a loyal following.
Hicks, Sykes, and Epps executive produce alongside Page Hurwitz, Niles Kirchner, Annie Levine, Jon Emerson, and Mark Alton Brown.
Part 7 of The Upshaws premieres Thursday, January 15, 2026, exclusively on Netflix.
One last run. One more ride with the Upshaws.
