TV show description:
A comedy, this series revolves around childhood best friends Maggie Caruso (Lennon Parham) and Emma Crawford (Jessica St. Clair). They’ve shared countless adventures growing up together in the charming town of Pinebrook, CT. Now, they’re about to have one of their biggest adventures — raising a baby.
When Maggie discovers that her husband Bruce (Brad Morris) is having an online affair (with a muscular German woman), Emma gives up her burgeoning business career in China to stay in their hometown and help Maggie raise her baby.
Meanwhile, as Maggie prepares for the birth of her first child and the fallout of her marriage ending, Emma must confront the past that she abruptly left behind thirteen years ago. Her first love and local cop Mark Rodriguez (Keegan-Michael Key), her perfectly coiffed and extremely opinionated mother Gwen Crawford (Jane Kaczmarek), and a small town that she’s never felt comfortable in.
Zach Harper (Zach Woods) is Maggie’s sweet, quirky, and good-hearted younger brother. They’re close (bonded by the untimely death of their parents many years ago) and his affable nature and naïveté leads him down some questionable paths.
Despite their differences — Emma is brash, bold, and assertive while Maggie is grounded, rational, and safe — the women complement each other the way only best friends can. They face the challenges of their past, present and future together.
Episode #36 — Reverse the Curse
On their way to a fancy dinner, Maggie and Emma get into trouble in the best way possible. Some new and old friends come to their rescue.
First aired: July 14, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the Playing House TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
Playing house should stay on the air!!!! If it needs better ratings then move it a different time slot.
I LOVE this show!! Hilarious! Refreshing! Best summer comedy on TV!! Casting is great; wonderful storyline. I truly feel connected to the characters and their story.
This is a great show and so funny! Not a lot of good comedies on TV. Let’s all help keep this show going!
They shouldn’t even consider canceling such a wonderful show. I don’t quite understand why we had to wait so long for the few episodes that they gave us this year. It scares me that they shortened the season and I will be stuck with a replacement of yet another mind numbing bs reality show …. So so so very sad that real TV talent is literally murdered in this society’s current mind set..
This is the BEST show on TV!!! Any one who says it is not is crazy!! Finally a real funny sitcom….man it’s been a long long time. But as usual ..people say it is not funny…well if you don’t think this show is funny then you don’t know what funny is!!
Please don’t let it cancel..finally a show families in America can sit home and enjoy together while being a family.
This is what we need!!!
