Administrator Toups Posted May 8, 2012 Author Administrator Share Posted May 8, 2012 These days, families come in all forms – single dads, double moms, sperm donors, egg donors, one-night-stand donors… It’s 2012 and anything goes. Bryan (Andrew Rannells, “Girls,” “The Book of Mormon”) and David (Justin Bartha, “The Hangover”) are a Beverly Hills couple and they have it all. Well, almost. With successful careers and a committed and loving partnership, the one thing missing is a baby. And just when they think the stars will never align, enter Goldie (Georgia King, “One Day”), an extraordinary young woman with a checkered past. A Midwestern waitress and single mother looking to escape her dead-end life and small-minded grandmother (Ellen Barkin, “Ocean’s Thirteen”), Goldie decides to change everything and move to L.A. with her precocious 8-year-old daughter. Desperate and broke – but also fertile – Goldie quickly becomes the guys’ surrogate and quite possibly the girl of their dreams. Surrogate mother, surrogate family. “The New Normal” is produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Ryan Murphy Productions. Murphy serves as creator/executive producer and director along with executive producer/creator/writer Ali Adler (“Glee,” “Chuck”) and executive producer Dante Di Loreto (“Glee,” “American Horror Story”).

Members JackPeyton Posted May 14, 2012 Members Share Posted May 14, 2012 Even if this is good, it will not stay good past 6 episodes - tops. The cast however, is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 Oh I remember her, but not mostly from OLTL. She kind of reminds me of the late Mrs. Green Thumbs who used to appear on Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee. She was on during the Go Red Ball (2009). She also appeared during the protest of Dorian's gay wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members baller Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 More lazy reporting by tv guide if nothing else - its one of the bigger roles she had recently that would jump out on her IMDB page. I wouldn't consider her a vet in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
