Good news has been released for the fifth season of Switched at Birth.

While the final season was supposed to start airing last month, unfortunately, it was announced that the premiere has been extended until 2017-- but when in 2017?

That answer has been revealed. According to the show's Twitter page, the series will premiere the fifth year in January.

Filming has officially wrapped for the remaining episodes of the Freeform drama. Creator Lizzy Weiss took to her Twitter page last month to let fans know what it was like to set everyone's final ways as they rejoice in a bittersweet moment.

"We shot the final scene of the series as the actual final scene of the series in the same place we shot the first scene of the pilot, five and a half years ago," Weiss wrote. "The weather was perfect. The house was stunning against the night sky. All of my writers drove in for the final shot. Cast who weren't in the scene or even the episode came in to be part of the moment."

As hard as it was to say goodbye to the series, it seems like everyone still had a wonderful day together.

"Everyone's family came by. There were flowers, bottles of wines, homemade necklaces, and lovely thank you cards handed out," Weiss wrote. "Crew who worked together thousands of hours hugged and teared up and took selfies. We all stood on the magnificent front lawn of the iconic Kennish house clapping and marveling at the once in a lifetime experience this was for all of us."
