Saying Goodbye to Grace and Frankie: 5 Reasons They Rocked Our World

As the revolutionary show ends, we look at all the ways it changed our thinking about this chapter of life (and maybe the rest of the world's too).

Editor's note: The beloved Netflix show Grace and Frankie has come to an end; the last episodes of the last season are being released today. (Though we hear there may be a spin-off or Christmas specials! Yay!) We first wrote about Grace and Frankie in the early days of NextTribe, and we've had many reasons to reference it since. One of our big honors was having Marta Kauffman, co-creator, part of the NextTribe story. She has appeared with her friend Amy Ferris for a virtual interview on friendship. She has conducted a workshop for NextTribers on writing for TV. She was a speaker at our virtual Out Loud event in 2021. But these aren't the only reasons we feel such a deep kinship with Grace and Frankie, the show and the characters. We thought this 2017 piece by Janet Siroto still sums up our appreciation best.

“Are you watching Grace and Frankie?” my coworker asked me.
