TVLine

The Emmy-winning docuseries that follows a diverse group of young men and women born with Down syndrome as they transition to adulthood will wrap up after four seasons with a six-part short-form digital series and a holiday special that will serve as a series finale. The sendoff “will celebrate the spirit of the holiday season as the cast gathers to reflect on their personal growth across the four seasons of the show and discuss Born This Way‘s impact on the way society views people with disabilities,” according to the official logline. “From finding jobs to navigating relationships and break ups to exerting their own independence, the cast will rejoice in the journey they have been on together and thank fans for all of their support along the way.” Executive producer Jonathan Murray says of Born This Way's legacy: “It’s not often that you get to make television like Born This Way which has had such a positive impact on the world. The show unquestionably changed how society views people with Down syndrome and how people with Down syndrome see themselves."
