‘Insecure’ ending with season 5 on HBO

Orji has played Molly on Insecure since the beginning of the series on HBO. After 5 seasons, Orji will be saying goodbye to her iconic character as the show ends with the last 10 episodes of the comedy. It was earlier this year that Amy Gravitt, VP of HBO Programming, confirmed the sad news for fans.

“Issa has turned insecurity into an iconic form of comedy,” she said in a statement to Deadline. “This talented team has conceived a brilliant final season for Insecure and we look forward to having many more stories to tell with this singular group of collaborators.”

Rae, star and creator of the show, said she always saw the story wrap with five seasons. The comedian told the publication that she and co-executive producer Prentice Penny “always planned to tell this story through five seasons.”

“Prentice and I are so grateful that HBO believed in our show from the beginning and kept faith in us to see our vision through the end,” Rae added.

‘Insecure’ filming last episode

The show has been filming for the past couple of months and Orji shared a photo of the script for the final episode. Although it’s not entirely legible, the last episode of Insecure is possibly titled, “Everything Gonna Be, Okay.” Orji snapped the shot during, what is presumed, the last table read with the cast.

“The final episode. Deng. This really is good-bye. I’mo miss y’all,” Orji posted on Instagram.

Reactions from fans rapidly came in with mixed emotions. Some were excited to know Insecure was filming, while others remembered this would be the last season of the show on HBO.

“This season should’ve been double the episodes since it’s the final one. I’m hurt, I feel like y’all broke up with me,” a fan replied.

“This show will be missed. I hope we get an Insecure movie,” a follower suggested.

“You played this role so well, I legit was mad at you all last season,” an Instagram user said.

“Why are they ending this? We will miss this show like no other. I literally binge-watch the seasons until new seasons populate. I hope you and Issa get ya sh*t together this seasons cause I was heartbroken seeing that friendship go thru what it did,” another fan commented.

“10 episodes? I hope this last one is at least an hour,” another follower added.

“Sad to see it end. It’s the end of an era,” another Instagram user replied.
