The heartfelt series, part of Hulu’s Onyx Collective, captivated audiences with its unique blend of humor and healing, but sadly, its journey has come to an end.

Created by Tracy McMillan and inspired by her real life, “UnPrisoned” followed Paige Alexander (Kerry Washington), a perfectionist relationship therapist and social media influencer whose world is turned upside-down when her father, Edwin Alexander (Delroy Lindo), is released from prison and moves in with her and her teenage son, Finn (Faly Rakotohavana). The show touched on themes of family, redemption, and self-discovery, resonating with many viewers.

Though Season 2 left the door open for a potential storyline involving Paige’s mother, the show has reached its conclusion.

Kerry took the opportunity to thank everyone involved, from the cast and crew to the producers and the fans, for their support throughout the series.

Ladies & Gents, that is a wrap on Unprisoned. 

This beautiful show that we poured so much of our hearts and souls into is unfortunately not coming back for a Season 3.

But I wanted you to hear it from me because while we’re super duper disappointed, we’re also crazy deeply grateful. Making this show was a labor of love.

And we know that so many of you found connection and healing with The Alexander Family – and that their impact will live on!

We are soooooo grateful to the entire cast & crew – who are not only brilliant and hardworking, but a JOY to work with!

Thank you to our fellow producers and all our writers and directors for leading and guiding and inspiring us. Thank you to ABCS, Hulu & Onyx for giving us a creative home.

And most importantly, we are grateful to YOU ALL – for watching, laughing, crying, yelling, dancing, eye-rolling, cheering (and all of the things between) along with us each episode.

It was such a blessing. And we thank you ❤️ OK! I don’t want to make this all sad, so I would LOOOOOOVE if you commented below 👇🏾 your favorite moment from the show.

We shared a few of ours in this video.

See Kerry’s original post below.

Executive producers for “UnPrisoned” included McMillan, Yvette Lee Bowser, Washington, and Delroy Lindo, with production through Washington’s Simpson Street and Onyx Collective.

While it’s sad to see “UnPrisoned” come to a close, its impact on fans and its portrayal of a complex father-daughter relationship will live on.

For those who followed the journey of the Alexander family, this marks the end of a heartfelt, emotional series that left a lasting impression.

Frens, were you looking forward to a third season?
