Fans of Doubling Down with the Derricos can breathe a sigh of relief as the show is set to return despite initial concerns of cancellation. Grateful viewers took to social media to thank TLC for bringing back the beloved family show. Deon Derrico rallied fans to vote for its continuation, ensuring its renewal. However, it’s worth noting that the time slot has changed, and the show will now air at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The highly anticipated Season 5 premiere is scheduled for May 14 and will be available on TLC, discovery+, and Max.
In Season 5, fans will catch up with Deon Derrico’s mother, affectionately known as “GG.” The good news is that she is still alive, but spoilers hint at a tough decision she must make regarding her chemotherapy. While Deon may not be pleased with her choice, GG is determined to explore more holistic approaches to treating her cancer.
The Derrico family finds themselves in a new home this season, but things aren’t going smoothly. Renovations prove to be a challenge, and Karen grows frustrated as everything that can go wrong seems to do so. Tensions also arise over their daughter Darian, who disagrees with her mother’s choice of study. Darian confides in her father about her dissatisfaction with her musical performance courses, leading to a clash of opinions.
The children of the Doubling Down with the Derricos family are growing up, and romance is in the air for the older boys, who have become “girl-crazy!” Derrick and his two younger brothers experience the joys and challenges of puberty simultaneously. The youngest triplets, including Dawsyn, who underwent heart surgery in Season 2, are thriving and healthy at the age of four. The energetic nine-year-old quintuplets, Deniko, Dariz, Deonee, Daician, and Daiten, add their lively spirits to the bustling household. And let’s not forget the surviving triplets, Diez and Dior, who contribute their voices to the cacophony of fun and excitement that is life in the Derrico household.
While the trailer for Season 5 doesn’t hint at any new additions to the family, it does feature a suspenseful moment involving an ambulance, with GG not being the one in trouble. Fans are in for an emotional and thrilling journey as they rejoin the Derrico family in their latest adventures.
