The multi-camera, scripted half-hour series features Tia Mowry-Hardrict as Stephanie, a former party girl who becomes a full-time stepmom to three kids when she marries the more traditional Charlie (Michael Boatman, Spin City).

Rounding out the cast are Charlie’s three kids played by Sydney Park (AwesomenessTV), Tylen Jacob Williams and Damarr Calhoun. Instant Mom is executive-produced by Howard Michael Gould, Aaron Kaplan and Regina Hicks.

For three seasons, Mowry-Hardrict starred with her sister Tamera and executive produced the hit STYLE network series Tia & Tamera, which set a record as the most watched series launch in the network’s history.
