Hit Comedy Series RAVEN'S HOME Returns for a Second Season Monday, June 25, on Disney Channel  Image

Season two of Disney Channel's hit comedy series "Raven's Home" is set to premiere with a week of four new episodes, beginning MONDAY, JUNE 25 - THURSDAY, JUNE 28 (9:30-10:00 a.m. EDT/PDT), on Disney Channel, in the DisneyNOW app and on Disney Channel VOD. Following the debut week, new episodes will premiere throughout the summer on Tuesday and Friday mornings (9:30-10:00 a.m. EDT/PDT), as part of Disney Channel's GO! Summer that super-serves kids and families all season with new programming and fan-centric off-air events.

Made for kids age 6-14 and their families, the series will continue to present funny, relatable, heartfelt and broad storylines about kids, parents, twin siblings and best friends for life. In the second season, Raven Baxter, played by Emmy®-nominated comedic actress Raven-Symoné, learns along with the entire family that her son Booker has inherited her ability to catch glimpses into the future. When Booker and Raven's visions collide, it sets madcap escapades into motion for the entire extended family.

The second season will spotlight the multitalented cast in a show-stopping musical episode, with original songs and dance numbers choreographed by Will "Willdabeast" Adams and directed by Paul Hoen (director of over a dozen Disney Channel Original Movies including "ZOMBIES" and "Camp Rock 2," "Let It Shine").

Season two guest stars include Jonathan McDaniel ("That So Raven") who returns as Nia and Booker's dad, Devon Carter; Brian George ("That's So Raven") as Dr. Sleevemore; Mike Massimino as Tess' dad, Jimmy; Anthony Alabi as Coach Spitz; Wendy Raquel Robinson ("Descendants") as Dream Weaver; and Dylan Martin Frankel as the family's new 12-year-old landlord, Mitch.

In July 2017, "Raven's Home" debuted as the #1 live-action cable TV series premiere among its targeted demographics - Kids 6-11 (1.33 million/5.6 rating) and Tweens 9-14 (1.54 million/6.3 rating) - and as the #1 live-action series premiere among all kid cable TV networks in Total Viewers (4.19 million) in two years since Disney Channel's "BUNK'D" (July 31, 2015). During its debut season, "Raven's Home" amassed over 50 million views on TV and digital viewing platforms, including 18.1 million total views on Disney Channel's Youtube and 12 million views on VOD. The series was nominated for an NAACP Image Award and Raven-Symoné was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award.

Raven-Symoné reprises her role as Raven Baxter from the iconic comedy "That's So Raven" (2003-07) and serves as executive producer. Also starring are Issac Ryan Brown as Booker Baxter-Carter, Navia Robinson as Nia Baxter-Carter, Jason Maybaum as Levi Grayson, Sky Katz as Tess and, reprising her "That's So Raven" role, Anneliese van der Pol as Chelsea Daniels.

For the second season, Raven was reunited with Dava Savel and Michael Feldman (writer/producers on "That's So Raven"), who joined as executive producers. The series theme song, "Raven's Home," is performed by Raven-Symoné, Navia Robinson, Issac Ryan Brown, Jason Maybaum, Sky Katz, and Anneliese Van der Pol and was written and produced by Andy Love, Joacim Persson and Johan Alkenäs. The series was created by Michael Poryes and Susan Sherman and developed by Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas. "Raven's Home" is a production of It's a Laugh Productions, Inc. and carries a TV-G parental guideline.
