‘Johnson’ Season 4 Takes on Hot-Button Topics and New Beginnings

Bounce TV dramedy Johnson is back for a fourth season.

The series follows four Black men — Omar, Greg, Keith and Jarvis — who met in grade school and have been best friends ever since. They all just happen to have the same last name, Johnson, but aren’t related.

Bounce recently released the season 4 trailer, which finds the friends getting out of their comfort zones, looking for love, and jetting off for an island getaway.

“Hot-button topics including race, mental health, classism and the ever-evolving relationship dynamics between men and women” will all be central themes on the new season, the network said in a press release.
