Family Reunion is coming to an end.
Netflix on Monday handed out a renewal for a third and final season of the multicamera comedy.
This also marks the lowest episode order for the series, down from 20 and 15 episodes in seasons one and two, respectively.
Series creator Meg DeLoatch had handed over the showrunning duties to Adrienne Carter (Everybody Hates Chris) and Arthur Harris (Living Single).
DeLoatch will still have a creative involvement, but she will not be running the show on a day-to-day basis for the final episodes.
DeLoatch was named the showrunner of the CBS comedy series The Neighborhood, complicating a return to Family Reunion full-time.
“I am so excited that Family Reunion will be returning for a third season,” said DeLoatch in a statement.
"I will always be grateful to Netflix for giving me the opportunity to finally tell my story and the platform to share the beautiful,...

Terence Stamp Finds His Song
By Alex Simon
One of the iconic actors and faces of London’s “swinging” sixties; Terence Stamp was discovered by actor/director Peter Ustinov for the titular role in his adaptation of Melville’s “Billy Budd” in 1962. The Cockney lad from London’s notorious Bow district was thrust into the limelight almost overnight, becoming a symbol of the English working class “intelligentsia,” which helped shape that decade’s pop culture. Along with game-changers like Joe Orton, (Stamp’s former roommate) Michael Caine, and the Beatles, Stamp et al proved to the world that one needn’t have graduated with a First from Oxford to make a mark on the world.
Terence Stamp marked his 50th year in show business with the release of last year’s “Unfinished Song,” being released today on DVD and Amazon Instant Video by Anchor Bay Entertainment. Stamp plays grumpy pensioner Arthur Harris,...

"Unfinished Song" is a cute British senior singers dramedy all-too-obviously inspired by the 2007 American documentary "Young@Heart." Round up some adorable retirees -- "Old Age Pensioners, or O.A.P.'s," the Brits call them. Put them in tie-dyed T-shirts, teach them "The Robot" and let them croon through "Love Shack," "Let's Talk About Sex" and "Maybe (I'm Crazy)" in between deaths, health crises and the like.
It's so impish and feel-good you want to pinch its cheeks and tell it "Aren't you precious?" Which it is.
Thank heaven for the presence of Terence Stamp, the original General Zod from "Superman" and one of the legends of the British screen. All this bubbliness all around him and all Stamp's character, Arthur Harris, can do is grouse and scowl with his best villainous glare.
Arthur indulges his wife's membership in a seniors' chorus, The "O.A.P.Z." He stands outside...

As expected, Tate Taylor's "The Help" won big at the 43rd Annual NAACP Image Awards. The film won Outstanding Picture of the Year with Viola Davis winning Outstanding Actress and Octavia Spencer taking home the Outstanding Supporting Actress award. Taylor lost to "Jumping the Broom's" Salim Akil for Best Director because apparently, it's a better picture than "The Help!"
