Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin star in the Netflix comedy series Grace and Frankie. They play older women whose husbands fall in love with each other and make them unlikely friends. Marta Kauffman and Howard J. Morris made the show, which debuted in 2015.
On April 29, the last season of Grace and Frankie came out. The season ended with the story of the two, whose husbands left them for each other after finding out they were gay. The show also had Brooklyn Decker, June Diane Raphael, Baron Vaughn, and Ethan Embry in addition to Fonda, Tomlin, Waterson, and Sheen. The happy ending makes it seem like there won’t be a Season 8 of Grace and Frankie.

Grace and Frankie Season 7 Recap
Nick, Grace’s new boyfriend, was arrested at the end of Season 6. Grace and Frankie kept some of Nick’s illegally earned money hidden. At the beginning of Season 7, Grace and Frankie are back at the beach house where the show began, along with their now-homeless ex-husbands, Robert and Sol. Also, the FBI is looking for the rest of Nick’s stolen money, which Grace and Frankie stole.
The rest of the season should be about what happens after Nick is arrested, with Grace and Frankie trying to wash the money so they can use it. There are also hints that Nick might be let out of prison, which would be hard on his relationship with Frankie.
The show also follows Grace and Frankie’s children and grandchildren, each of whom has their own worries and problems. Most of them are Bud and Coyote, who Grace and Frankie adopted, as well as Brianna and Mallory, who Grace and Robert had when they were married.
Grace and Frankie Season 8 Episodes
If the showrunner opts for the next season of Grace and Frankie, it could have 16 or more episodes, just like the previous seasons did. So, the next season should have at least 16 episodes.
Where can I watch Grace and Frankie?
Grace and Frankie is only available on Netflix, so you need a Netflix account to watch it. It can also be seen during a free trial of Netflix.

Grace and Frankie Season 8 Release Date
It’s impossible to guess when it will come out until a season is set. If the tv series is picked up, the whole process of making it will take about 18 months.
