Cultures Clash in ‘Bob Hearts Abishola’ Season 5 Premiere Sneak Peek (VIDEO)
The conclusion of Bob Hearts Abishola draws near as its fifth season debuts on Monday, February 12 at 8:30/7:30c on CBS.
In Season 5, Episode 1, “Kill the Cat,” when Abishola (Folake Olowofoyeku) finds out Dele (Travis Wolfe) canceled his plans to go to Harvard behind her back, Bob (Billy Gardell) steps in to keep her from going ballistic.
And TV Insider’s exclusive clip of the episode offers a look at Bob and Abishola clashing about Dele. Ebunoluwa (Saidah Arrika Ekulona) naturally takes Abishola’s side, not “drilling it into him hard enough” regarding getting into Harvard. However, Bob says, “You can’t use a country as a time-out.” At the end of it all, the ladies come to a conclusion that’s up to viewers to decide if it’s true.
Check out the full clip in the video above.
As observant fans might have noticed, the topic of Bob and Abishola’s significant relocation to Baltimore remains unaddressed. Many speculated that creator Chuck Lorre would use the cliffhanger as an opportunity to shake the status quo as the series heads toward its end. Lorre has also gone on record saying the series “had more stories to tell” after it was announced the fifth season would be its last.
Season 4 ended with Abishola’s Johns Hopkins acceptance and Bob’s crisis of leaving Detroit after news of the series’ reduced 13 regular cast members surfaced. Gardell and Olowofoyeku are the only ones retained as series regulars for Season 5.
Be sure to tune in to the season premiere to discover what’s happening with the couple and their big move.
