Reel Perspectives

October 22, 2025

The tantalizing hit series, "The Family Business," is back for Season 6, packed with even more gripping drama, intense family feuds, and explosive secrets! With LC and Junior on the brink of war, the Duncans are a family divided, forced to choose sides and testing their allegiances like never before.

Produced by Tri Destined Studios and Urban Books Media, the series is based on Carl Weber's New York Times best-selling crime drama book series and follows the Duncans, a seemingly upstanding family running an exotic car dealership in New York but living a dangerous double life.

The new season premieres on October 23 exclusively on BET+ with a double episode premiere, continuing with weekly episodes through the season finale on December 18.

Starring Ernie Hudson, who also serves as Executive Producer, returning cast members include Hudson, Valarie Pettiford, Darrin Henson, Javicia Leslie, Tami Roman, Sean Ringgold, Michael Jai White, Lisaraye McCoy, Arrington Foster, Brely Evans, Dylan Weber, Yadi Valerio, Bern Nadette Stanis, Ben Stephens, and Deyshaun Tucker.

In Season 5, a civil war broke out within the Duncan family after Uncle Larry's violent outburst and Junior's secret, with a new enemy, "The Alliance," and their leader, Antonio, emerging to threaten the family. The Duncans welcomed Vegas home, but were upset that Junior decided to leave the family. LC did whatever it took to protect Vegas, as alliances shifted with eyes on a power grab at The Table. With all the drama unfolding, Paris' ex, Niles Monroe, reappeared unexpectedly, seeking revenge and tipping the scales for everyone involved.

In Season 6, the stakes have never been higher as the civil war threatens to tear The Duncans apart with escalating tension, high drama, and suspenseful action. LC and Chippy Duncan are not only at odds with their son Junior and sister-in-law Donna, but they are also reeling from the discovery of a new son, Roman, who was abducted at birth. As they navigate this new family dynamic, the theft of 140 million dollars and the death of a friend they hold dear, things get even worse when the dreaded text goes out, "Duncan Down!"

Season 6 of "The Family Business" kicks off on October 23. Plus, don’t miss Season 1 of the exciting spinoff, "The Family Business: New Orleans," also available exclusively on BET+.
