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,...

Family Reunion fans who wondered what happened after Cocoa and Moz announced that they were expecting a baby in the Season 2 finale will get that answer, now that Netflix has renewed the familial sitcom for a third — and final — season.

(Former showrunner Meg DeLoatch, who created Family Reunion, is now doing the honors on CBS’ The Neighborhood, but will continue to executive-produce Family Reunion Season 3.)

Netflix renewed family sitcom “Family Reunion” for a 10-episode third and final season.

The series follows the McKellan family who moved from Seattle to Georgia in the series premiere to be closer to extended family. Now there are three generations living in the same house, and house is stuffed full of people. During the first two seasons, which were split into two parts each, the characters had to adjust to their new lifestyle, which included three-hour church services and “huge humidity hair,” as the network puts it. As complicated as things could be, there has been a lot of family bonding and learning and growing along the way, as well, and the final season should continue that pattern.

James Brown and his wife Adrienne Carter are just one couple unable to get out of their Southeast Houston neighborhood because of two feet of water remaining on the major thoroughfare of Telephone Road.

But, as captured in a video posted by Houstons’ local CBS affiliate, Khou, the community has rallied around the neighborhood to bring much-needed food and supplies to those who are stuck.
