TIME SLOT:
completed airing its current season
SEASON(S):

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
series finale aired on 4/11/17
DESCRIPTION:
(from Freeform's press release, March 2017) In the emotional 90-minute series finale of the award-winning drama, Kathryn becomes nostalgic when she realizes that it's been five years since the switch was discovered and the two families started living together. As she searches for memories, Kathryn discovers a long buried family secret - stretching all the way back to the switch - that changes everything. Daphne competes against Mingo for a six-week paid internship in sports medicine. Bay is celebrated for her tattoo work in a magazine spread, but her struggle to prove herself as an artist to John threatens to destroy their relationship. Toby meets Amelia (guest star Lauren Potter, "Glee"), a young woman with Down Syndrome who changes his perception about his son's future. Melody, Emmett and Travis make some major decisions about their lives, and Regina takes a chance on love. The family drama explores blended families and deaf culture, with an array of deaf and hard-of-hearing actors, and includes scenes shot entirely in American Sign Language (ASL). Winner of a Peabody Award, as well as a Television Critics Association Award for Outstanding Achievement in Youth Programming and an Imagen Award for Best Primetime Program, the series has also won AFTRA's (American Federation of Television and Radio Artists) American Scene "Crystal Award(R)," the Producers Guild of America George Sunga Award and a Gracie Award.
