Unbeknownst to her kids, Raven still catches glimpses of the future, and unbeknownst to her, Booker has just learned he has these same abilities.

Trivia

  • Raven-Symoné and Issac Ryan Brown are the only the main actors present for all six seasons. Navia Robinson, Jason Maybaum, Sky Katz, and Anneliese van der Pol all left the series after having been in the main cast for the first four seasons. Rondell Sheridan, Mykal-Michelle Harris, Felix Avitia, and Emmy Liu-Wang all joined the series during the shows fifth season.
  • Raven's Home must be set at least three years in the future from broadcast date. That's So Raven ended in 2007 and was, presumably, set in that year; Raven and her friends have not yet graduated (which fits with Chelsea's birth date of 1989, making them 18 in the final season.) Presumably at least two years since the end of That's So Raven pass, to allow for an off-screen graduation and Raven's marriage to Devon and Chelsea's marriage to Garrett. If so, this places the earliest date of birth for the twins as 2010. This places the show's timeline as beginning in a year no earlier than 2021/2 as they are 11-12 in Season One.
