'Party of Five' Season One Finale Will Feature Special 90-Minute Episode

The cast of Party of Five made a special announcement at the 2020 Winter TCA Press Tour!

Emily Tosta, Brandon Larracuente, Niko Guardado, and Elle Paris Legaspi took the stage during the Freeform segment of the event held at The Langham Huntington on Friday (January 17) in Pasadena, Calif.

They revealed that Party of Five will end its first season with a 90-minute episode on March 4 at 8:30 p.m. EST/PST.

Party of Five follows the five Acosta children as they navigate daily life struggles to survive as a family unit after their parents are suddenly deported back to Mexico.

Creator Amy Lippman, who also created the original series, said at the event (via Deadline), “What’s the same is that we took the characters of the original and translated them to this. If you knew the original you’ll come to it and you’ll feel like ‘I kind of know who these kids are.’ We put them in a different situation. That said, there are easter eggs.”

She teased that in this season, “all the kids have love interests and some of them will have echoes to the original.”

“I’m as proud of this as I was of the other show,” Amy continued. “To me, it feels like it’s something that’s important. In many ways, this is a much better idea than the original because the thing is when you deal with the death of a parent, it’s less urgent every year you go passed that death. What we struggle to do with the [original] series, and I hope we did it successfully, that that ceased to be the unifying idea of the show. It was just a show about a family.”

“This show you have an opportunity to look at these kids as kids who are growing up and learning things about themselves but in an extraordinary situation,” she added. “I wish it was more extraordinary.”

Party of Five airs Wednesdays on Freeform. Watch a first-look clip from the upcoming episode now!
