      Its unfortunate that they removed the entire cast except for Abishola and Bob for the next and last season.
      They preemptively canceled this show.
      It brought in millions for the network, but, they stuck to the formula that networks have used for decades, which is to create sit com content centered around black culture, then, cancel the shows after they secure the time slot and money, and put white content in its place.
      Two great examples are 'Living Single', and, 'Half & Half'.
      Its unfortunate, but, the more we are told that things change related to equity, the worse they really are.
      This show is a wonder - hopefully another network will be allowed to move forward with it, with the full cast reinstated.
      The network revealed that Bob Hearts Abishola will also end following its upcoming fifth season. Nov 29, 2023

      @@japerkins3565 I agree. I was so sad to read about that. I feel like the ratings are going to come down. The whole cast makes the show. I hope the writers quickly realized this and bring the full cast back.
