ABC’s ‘Black-ish’ has been renewed for season 6. The popular comedy is loosely based on the life of show creator, Kenya Barris. What’s more to love? There’s talk of a spinoff Mixed-ish, as reported by Deadline. It is about Rainbow Johnson’s (Tracee Ellis Ross) experience growing up in a mixed-race family in the ‘80s.
