Administrator Toups Posted May 11, 2013 Author Administrator Share Posted May 11, 2013 WELCOME TO THE FAMILY Think culture clash… actually, this is more like culture crash; for parents Dan Yoder (Mike O’Malley, “Glee,” “My Name Is Earl”) and wife Karina (Mary McCormack, “In Plain Sight,” “The West Wing”) who have struggled all their lives, on the day their daughter Molly (Ella Rae Peck, (“Deception,” “Gossip Girl”) graduates from high school with an acceptance to college locked up, they also find out she is knocked up! But that’s only half the story. Across town in East L.A., Junior Hernandez (Joseph Haro, “Glee,” “Awkward”), in the middle of his high school valedictorian speech, gets a text from girlfriend Molly that he’s going to be a daddy. Expectedly, Junior’s parents Miguel (Ricardo Chavira, “Desperate Housewives”) and Lisette (Justina Machado, “Six Feet Under,” “ER”) are also upset, as they now have Caucasians in the family! What follows is a crash course in culture blending as Molly and Junior decide they want to get married and, in doing so, bring together two very different families, which includes Junior’s younger brother, Demetrio (Aramis Knight, “General Hospital,” “Parenthood”). The dads have the most difficult time reconciling while the moms take a softer approach to get to know one another. When the parents fully realize that their kids are serious about making a life together, the adults exhale and begin to come to terms with this new blended family that is being formed and start to understand that it will take, humor, love and tolerance to make it all work. From writer and executive producer Mike Sikowitz (“Rules of Engagement,” “Friends”) comes a comedy that proves, life is full of unexpected little bumps — and some big ones too. Jamie Tarses also serves as executive producer (“Happy Endings, “Franklin & Bash”). The pilot was directed by Michael Engler (“Privileged,” “Psych”). “Welcome to the Family” is a production of Sony Pictures Television and FanFare Productions.

Members ChitHappens Posted October 19, 2013 Members Share Posted October 19, 2013 Never heard of this. Perhaps I never paid attention, but shows are dropping really quickly this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 19, 2013 Members Share Posted October 19, 2013 It isn't surprising when you remember how many have said this season's new offerings are among the weakest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members London Posted October 19, 2013 Members Share Posted October 19, 2013 It definitely wasn't the greatest but it had its moments, although they were fleeting. Sad for Mary McC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
