Speechless
Created by Scott Silveri
On ABC
A warm, energetic family sitcom that treats disability and parental advocacy with humor and genuine affection rather than sentimentality.
Maya DiMeo is a mom on a mission who will do anything for her husband, Jimmy, and kids Ray, Dylan, and JJ, her eldest son with special needs. As Maya fights injustices both real and imagined, the family works to make a new home for themselves and searches for just the right person to give JJ his “voice.”
