Freeform Expands Its Slate of Family Dramas with Everything's Gonna Be Okay

Hot on the heels of last week's premiere of the rebooted Party of Five, Freeform tonight adds another program to its lineup of unconventional family dramas with Everything's Gonna Be Okay, which approaches sensitive subjects like cancer, grieving, autism, and puberty from a uniquely off-kilter perspective. Here's what's new and notable on TV this Thursday:

NEW EPISODE:  With just three episodes left, our own Kevin O'Keefe weighs in on how The Good Place has been the perfect showcase for the two sides of Kristen Bell.
