The smash hit BET+ comedy The Ms. Pat Show is officially returning for its highly anticipated fifth season, with Wednesday, January 7, 2026 set as the premiere date, the streamer confirmed this week.
Fans of the Emmy-nominated sitcom — inspired by the raw, irreverent memoir of comedian Patricia “Ms. Pat” Williams-Lee — will see the Carson family back in action as they navigate life’s ups and downs with humor and heart. Over its previous four seasons, the series has been lauded for tackling challenging topics like addiction, trauma, and family dynamics with both sharp comedy and emotional depth.
Season 5 promises to continue that tradition, offering what producers are calling the show’s “wildest and most uproarious” chapter yet as the Carsons confront lingering scars from the past while chasing new dreams.
Adding to the excitement, BET+ has revealed an all-star roster of guest stars for the new season:
- Raven-Symoné, who not only appears on screen but also returns behind the camera directing episodes, continues her multifaceted involvement with the series.
- Tisha Campbell, known for her iconic roles in sitcoms and films.
- Loretta Devine, the Emmy award-winning actress joining the cast in a special guest role.
These high-profile appearances are part of a broader slate of notable cameos this season, which also includes talents like Tristan “Mack” Wilds, Sandra Caldwell, and the legendary R&B trio SWV.
The series stars Patricia “Ms. Pat” Williams-Lee alongside J. Bernard Calloway, Tami Roman, Vince Swann, Briyana Guadalupe, and Theodore John Barnes, with Brittany Inge recurring throughout the season.
The Ms. Pat Show Season 5 will stream exclusively on BET+ beginning January 7, 2026, bringing a fresh blend of humor, heart, and unfiltered storytelling to loyal viewers and newcomers alike.
