With the dinner table usually full during their weekly family dinners, there was a huge difference when Frank’s granddaughter Nicky left New York for San Francisco.
After making her first appearance in the pilot episode, it took a while for fans to adjust to the show without her when she left for her new job in season 10.
Although, so much has happened since her departure viewers could be in for a surprise when Nicky returns for a Sunday dinner.
The showrunner Kevin Wade hinted: “Hopefully she’ll swing by.”

He explained: “Sometimes characters age out, in the sense that Nicky went off to college and then moved to San Francisco, and I realised, ‘We don’t have the real estate to tell Nicky stories. ’
“But once it had become long enough, it was almost like, ‘Well, we should bring her back at least for a family dinner, at least to meet Joe Hill.’
“We actually were going to do that last season, and I don’t think her schedule matched up with ours,” Kevin added to TV Line.
Joe came as a surprise to the family after they uncovered a huge secret in the season 10 finale, which revealed the late Joseph had a son.
