Grace and Frankie's final episodes air on April 29
The show's background
The shooting of Grace and Frankie season 1 started back in 2014 and since then it has been an emotional and memorable journey for the cast members as well as the crew. Production for the final season got wrapped up in November 2021 and now it's finally time for the unit to release the last of this amazing journey.
Why is the show ending after season 7?
Well, fans have been wondering for some time now why such a popular and entertaining show is coming to an end. The answer to this painful question was directly given by the show's co-creator Martha Kaufman. Here's what she said in one of her latest interviews with the Los Angeles Times:
"It was a combination of things. Netflix isn't doing long-term series anymore. And we are really lucky that we got the seventh season"...."I think when we started, we imagined seven seasons. But, really, this is the kind of decision that comes from Netflix. But as sad as I am that it’s ending, there’s something that makes sense about it."
Martha Kaufman was not the only one who opened up about why the show is ending. Jeff Greenfield, the Chief Attribution Officer at C3 Metrics, also commented on why season 7 is going to be the finale for the show.
He said,
"The explosion of quality content is leading to massive consumer confusion on what to watch. Digital used to be about content curation; today it’s about content confusion and Grace and Frankie’s demise is the paradox of choice come to life."
Fans can now only accept the fact that just like any other good thing in life, Grace and Frankie will also come to an end. However, what should cheer them up is that there are still some fresh episodes left for them to enjoy that will stream from April 29.
