Directed by Ken Whittingham and written by Corey Nickerson, "Black-ish" season 2 episode 10 titled "Stuff" is set to air on ABC on Dec. 9, Wednesday. In the episode, Andre "Dre" Johnson (Anthony Anderson) thinks Christmas is all about "stuff" and has become commercialized.
Dre notices that nobody loves "stuff" more than his children. Thinking that children have forgotten the true meaning of Christmas, Pops (Laurence Fishburne) and Ruby (Jenifer Lewis) come up with a new plan to cut down gifts so they can spend more time together.
The children will not be glad to hear the news. They will try to be in their best behavior in an effort to change the minds of Dre and Dr. Rainbow "Bow" Johnson (Tracee Ellis Ross), Broadway World has learned.
Meanwhile, Daphne Lido (Wanda Sykes) is single and will be spending her holiday alone for the first time. To deal with her being alone, she invites herself to the Johnson family home to celebrate Christmas with them.
Along with Sykes, "Black-ish" season 2 episode 10 also features Peter Mackenzie, Catherine Reitman and Issac Ryan Brown as guest stars. Brown plays young Dre.
Created by Kenya Barris, "Black-ish" also stars Yara Shahidi, Marcus Scribner, Miles Brown and Marsai Martin, among others. Along with Barris and Anderson, the TV series is executive produced by Laurence Fishburne, E. Brian Dobbins and Helen Sugland.
Previously, the NAACP and TV One announced that Anderson signed a multi-year deal that will extend his hosting duties of upcoming 47th and 48th editions of the NAACP Image Awards.
"The NAACP Image Awards always delivers an epic evening with the best of the best across film, TV, music, and literature," Rolling Out quoted the "Black-ish" star as saying. "It is a privilege and honor to be asked back to host for the next two years."
