Single Parents
Created by Elizabeth Meriwether, J. J. Philbin
On ABC
A warm, ensemble sitcom about mutual support and found family, where the comedy emerges from the everyday chaos of single parenthood rather than from cynicism.
A group of single parents lean on each other to help raise their 7-year-old kids and maintain some kind of personal lives outside of parenthood.
