'Good American Family' finale is streaming. How to watch the Hulu series
Hulu viewers can now watch the entire Midwest-set drama " Good American Family."
The finale of the eight-episode series was released for streaming April 30.
Told from multiple points of view, the series is inspired by the story of Ukrainian orphan Natalia Grace Barnett, who was thrust into the spotlight after her Indiana adoptive parents claimed she was an adult, not a child, and that she tried to kill them.
Starring Ellen Pompeo ("Grey's Anatomy"), the limited drama series depicts the saga of Kristine and Michael Barnett, accused of abandoning their adopted daughter who they claimed was an adult with dwarfism who was posing as a child.
What is the Natalia Grace 'Good American Family' show about? Is it based on a true story?
The story made international news when the Barnetts were accused of abandoning Natalia, leaving her alone in a Lafayette apartment while the rest of the family moved to Canada.
In 2010, as the Journal & Courier has reported through the years, Michael and Kristine Barnett adopted Natalia, who they believed was 6 years old. Natalia had been diagnosed with spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, a rare genetic disorder affecting the spine and resulting in short stature and skeletal anomalies.
The parents claimed that the genetic disorder made Natalia appear far younger than she really was, and, as reported, the Barnetts petitioned in June 2012 for a Marion County court to alter Natalia's Ukrainian birth records.
Viewers are notified the episodes include "certain events as alleged by Kristine and Michael Barnett."
"This series portrays certain allegations by the individuals involved in this story, including in court proceedings and as publicly reported," the notice says. "It reflects and dramatizes multiple conflicting points of view, and does not intend to suggest that any particular allegation is the whole truth. Characters, scenes, dialogue and some events have been modified, imagined, or invented for dramatic purposes."
What is 'Good American Family' episode 8 about?
Titled 'Blood on Her Hands,' the episode is summarized: "With the world watching, Natalia and the Barnetts face off in the court of law and the court of public opinion."
Mike Epps association with 'Good American Family'
Comedian-actor Mike Epps is listed among the executive producers for eight episodes, along with Pompeo, Katie Robbins, Sarah Sutherland, Laura Holstein, Niles Kirchner, Dan Spilo and Andrew Stern. Erin Levy executive-produced three episodes, and Liz Garbus executive-produced the pilot.
Epps' Naptown Productions is among the production companies involved, alongside Disney's 20th Television, Pompeo's Calamity Jane, Babka Pictures, Andrew Stearn Productions and Industry Entertainment Partners.

Chappell Roan Says Her New Album Could Be Half A Decade Away
Chappell Roan isn't in any rush to follow up her Grammy‑winning debut album. Even as her latest single 'The Subway' generates plenty of excitement, the singer‑songwriter had made it clear in a new interview that her second album is still a long way off. For fans eager for a follow-up to the set that made her a star, the news may be disappointing, but Roan appears committed to taking her time. Chappell Roan Says Her Second Album Isn't Ready While some listeners see 'The Subway' as a sign that a larger project could be on the way, Roan insists otherwise. 'The second project doesn't exist,' the superstar told Vogue during a recent piece. Roan revealed out that it took her five years to finish her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess, and she expects a similar timeline for its follow‑up. 'I'm not that type of writer that can pump it out,' she explained. 'I don't think I make good music whenever I force myself to do anything.' Her approach contrasts sharply with the rapid‑fire release schedules of many top stars today, but she's never been one to follow the crowd. 'The Subway' Keeps Fans Listening Even without an album on the horizon, Roan is still delivering music that connects with a large crowd. 'The Subway' has already gained traction internationally since arriving only a few days ago, and it is expected to impact charts in several countries very soon. The tune could even bring her back to the top 10 on the Hot 100 if it continues to perform well. The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess Released in September 2023, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess introduced Roan as one of pop's most distinctive new voices. The project's insanely catchy pop anthems and introspective ballads earned her widespread critical praise, and its slow‑burn success helped her win the Grammy for Best New Artist. The set, and several of its singles, continue to live on charts in a number of countries, so Roan may feel she still has time before fans are really ready for another full-length. Standalone Singles Continue to Showcase Her Range Since her debut album dropped, Roan has released three singles not included on the project cycle: 'Good Luck, Babe!,' 'The Giver,' and 'The Subway.' The first of that bunch remains her most famous tune, and the one that helped her break out in a major way – even though it followed a proper full-length.

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt just bought one of the largest mansions in LA — and it's bigger than the Taj Mahal
The former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, just secured the keys to the Spelling kingdom. Schmidt and his wife, Wendy, dropped a cool $110 million on Spelling Manor, the Wall Street Journal reported. The legendary property spans over 56,000 square feet, making it one of the largest homes in Los Angeles. Schmidt's recent acquisition is now tied for the second most expensive home sale of 2025. The 100-plus room estate, known as the Manor, is larger than both the White House and the Taj Mahal. 7 The massive home sits on 4.6 acres. AP 7 Eric and Wendy Schmidt. REUTERS 7 The home is variously known as Spelling Manor and Candyland, after its former owners, Aaron and Candy Spelling. ASSOCIATED PRESS Construction on limestone-clad mansion was completed in 1988 by legendary TV producer Aaron Spelling — the mastermind behind such hits as 'Dynasty,' 'Charlie's Angels' and '90210.' For a time, it was recognized as the largest single-family home in Los Angeles County, and its successive sales repeatedly notched record prices. The mansion is famous for its grand size and outlandish amenities. Its over-the-top interiors during the Spelling era included a two-lane bowling alley, multiple gift-wrapping rooms, a dedicated doll collection room, a 20-seat cinema and 27 bathrooms. Candy Spelling, the widow of Aaron Spelling and mother of actress Tori Spelling, sold the home in for $85 million in 2011 to the Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone. The 22-year-old carried out a major redesign of the palatial home, reportedly opting for a more contemporary look. 7 The mansion can reportedly accommodate parking for 100-plus cars. Getty Images 7 The Spelling family, pictured in 1997. ASSOCIATED PRESS Schmidt is reportedly applying his Silicon Valley-like penchant for optimization to renovation plans of his own. The 70-year-old will carry out a major remodel and rebrand of the Manor, according to the Journal. In addition to simplifying the floor plan and making it more energy efficient, he reportedly intends to rechristen the home '594,' after its Mapleton Drive address. Despite the eye-watering price, Schmidt can congratulate himself on paying less that the previous owner. The Manor last changed hands when Ecclestone offloaded the property to an unidentified buyer — reportedly a Saudi national — for slightly less than $120 million in 2019, setting yet another California record. 7 Schmidt is planning to renovate the home for simplicity and energy efficiency. Getty Images 7 The Schmidts reportedly plan to use the property for philanthropic events. Getty Images for LACMA The home was most recently listed for $137.5 million after several years of price cuts. Carolwood Estates agents Drew Fenton and Linda May represented the seller and the buyer, respectively. Schmidt and his wife, both philanthropists, plan to use the property to hold meetings and events for local nonprofits, the Journal reported. The pair own an impressive portfolio of other trophy homes across London, New York, California, DC, Florida and Massachusetts.
