ABC’s “A Million Little Things” will come to a close after Season 5, ABC announced on Monday. The dramedy, about a group of friends who are spurred to live their lives more fully after the unexpected death of a loved one, will begin airing its final “celebratory farewell” season on Feb. 8 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

In a short cast clip, David Giuntoli (who plays Eddie Saville), Romany Malco (Rome Howard), Allison Miller (Maggie Bloom), Christina Moses (Regina Howard), Grace Park (Katherine Kim) and James Roday Rodriguez (Gary Mendez) thanked fans for following along with the story across four seasons and stated that it felt like “the right time” for the show to come to its conclusion.

Creator and executive producer DJ Nash said in a statement: “I know seeing this show end may be sad for many people (especially my mom who watches live every week), but I always knew I wanted to follow these friends for 5 seasons and leave them when the time was right. When we started making our show, I never could have imagined this incredible community of ‘Millionaires’ who would come together and not only watch, but also share with each other their personal struggles, their pain and ultimately their true grit. I am both honored and humbled by all of it and am so in awe of the incredible actors, writers, directors and crew who lend their talent to make our show. I am also so grateful that ABC now makes mental health awareness one of the top issues for which it advocates. Terrence and I can’t wait for the Millionaires to watch what we have planned for our final season.”

After 35 days of viewing across all linear and digital platforms, “A Million Little Things” was ABC’s No. 1 delayed-viewing gainer last season in both total viewers and adults 18-49, where the show soared more than seven times over its initial live plus same-day rating.

Tristan Byon, Lizzy Greene and Chance Hurstfield also star. Terrence Coli, Aaron Kaplan and Brian Morewitz are executive producers, with co-executive producers Joanna Kerns. ABC Signature/Kapital Entertainment is behind the series.
