Jon Cryer and Donald Faison return to the world of sitcoms with NBC’s Extended Family, created by Mike O’Malley (Heels, Survivor’s Remorse). The half-hour relationship comedy premieres on Saturday, December 23, 2023 at 8pm ET/PT, and then moves to its regular Tuesdays at 8:30pm time slot on January 2, 2024.
Two-time Primetime Emmy winner Jon Cryer (Two and a Half Men) executive produces and stars as Jim, Abigail Spencer (Suits, Timeless) stars as Julia, and Donald Faison (Scrubs) plays Trey. The season one cast also includes Sofia Capanna as Grace and Finn Sweeney as Jimmy Jr.
O’Malley is the showrunner and executive produces along with Tom Werner, Wyc Grousbeck, Emilia Fazzalari, George Geyer, Victor Levin, Victoria Morrow, and James Widdoes.
“Jim and Julia, after an amicable divorce, decide to continue to raise their kids at the family home while taking turns on who gets to stay with them,” reads NBC’s official synopsis. “Navigating the waters of divorce and child-sharing gets more complicated for Jim when Trey, the owner of the Boston Celtics, enters the picture and wins Julia’s heart.”
Season one, debuting at midseason, will consist of 13 episodes.
