Anthony Anderson Guest Stars in "The Neighborhood" 150th Episode

The upcoming 150th episode of "The Neighborhood" will feature a notable guest appearance by Anthony Anderson, as reported exclusively. Anderson will portray Clancy Pridgeon, the enigmatic and imposing father of Courtney, played by Skye Townsend. His character's arrival is driven by a desire to judge Marty (Marcel Spears), the man responsible for Courtney's pregnancy and a potential suitor.

Clancy's appearance coincides with Marty's contemplation of proposing marriage to Courtney. The fall finale saw Marty accompanied by Dave to a jewelry store for an engagement ring, but viewers will have to wait until the show's midseason premiere on February 23rd to see if the proposal materializes. This storyline adds a layer of anticipation and familial tension.

"The Neighborhood" is approaching its series finale, with co-showrunners Mike Schiff and Bill Martin aiming for an "intimate" and emotionally resonant conclusion. They emphasized a desire to avoid an overly large finale, drawing inspiration from the impactful ending of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" to create a memorable send-off that captures the essence of why audiences enjoyed the series.
