Speechless, ABC’s sweet family comedy about a teenager with cerebral palsy, has been renewed for a third season
ABC’s ‘Speechless’, a sitcom about a family that includes a son with cerebral palsy who uses a wheelchair, was just renewed for a third season. The show has been applauded by people with disabilities and their allies for portraying life with a disability with humour and realism, and not as a tragedy.

Have you watched the show? What do you think of it? What are some other shows that do a good job of representing people living with disabilities?

I’m really pleased that this series has been greenlit for a third season. I encourage all of you to watch it if you haven’t already. It’s funny, accurate and the sentimental aspects don’t come across as overtly forced.
My hope is that we’ll get to see J.J. go to college eventually!

I think you’ll like it Adnan. I know it’s on Hulu, and I’m sure there are other sites you can find it on.
