Black-ish Earns Its ABC Rite of Passage and Visits Disney World for Its Season Premiere

But it’s not an integration

Black-ish might be a hit show worthy of an Emmy nomination for best comedy this year, but when you're an ABC family sitcom, you haven't truly arrived until you travel to Disney World or Disneyland to film an episode.

The series is finally doing that during Wednesday's Season 3 premiere, when Dre, played by Anthony Anderson, takes his family to Disney World to give them the VIP Disney vacation he never had as a kid.

The Disney World (or Disneyland) excursion has become a rite of passage for ABC's family sitcoms since Disney acquired the network in 1996.
