It evoked comparisons to the Lee-co-createdIt follows journey of Angela Vaughn , a single mom with a plan to reclaim her family’s name.
At the of end of season one, which ended in January, Nadine Ellis’ Dupont was shot. Gist told Deadline that had the series been renewed, she would survive the shooting from an assailant that was originally looking to harm her father Teddy Franklin . “What I love about that is that we spent the season bringing the family together and so, you always have to give families something to root for and a reason to bring them back,” she said. “By the end of the season, the family is cracked because of the Teddy of it all. So hopefully going forward, Leah’s injury will be the touchstone to bring the family back together.”
