When Season 7 was first filming, they were interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic and forced to halt production. Shortly after production was stopped, Deadline reported the cast of Grace and Frankie hosted a table read in April 2020 to raise funds for Meals on Wheels. Season 6 premiered on Jan. 15, 2020, leaving a nineteen-month gap between seasons.

Deadline also reports that the first four episodes of the show had been shot prior to the production shutdown, meaning there could be a slight delay between the episodes and the remaining dozen. Netflix ordered sixteen episodes for Season 7, and while fans are certain they won't cut the finale short due to coronavirus, it could be a few more weeks before those episodes are available for streaming.

If you need a recap, here's what you missed on Season 6 of 'Grace and Frankie.'

As Grace frets about the state of her new marriage, Nick is arrested for white-collar crime and leaves behind a gift in return: the couch that Grace has always hated is stuffed with enough cold, hard cash to get their business out of the toilet. Meanwhile, Grace's daughter Brianna (June Diane Raphael) and long-term boyfriend Barry (Peter Cambor) nearly break up over Brianna's refusal to get married but end up engaged instead.
