The series has wrapped its fifth installment on the Oprah Winfrey Network. For Netflix International subscribers, Greenleaf Season 5 has just dropped last week. Although there is no word for season 6, fans are hoping that they won’t have to say goodbye to the series, just yet.
However, the creators offer one last treat to the viewers. The Greenleaf season 5 gives us a freebie, a one-hour special entitled, Greenleaf: Goin‘ Up Yonder aired last June. However, the streaming giant remains tight-lipped on whether the one-hour special show will also drop on Netflix.
Fans will be happy to know that the series will not drop weekly, but all episodes will automatically be added on the streaming platform.
