What happens

The Parker Andersons and Amelia Parker are a pair of related television sitcoms, which premiered in 2021 on Super Channel. The shows both depict a blended family living in the suburbs of Chicago following the remarriage of widower Tony Parker (Arnold Pinnock) and divorced single mother Cleo Anderson (Kate Hewlett); while they share interconnections of character and storyline, The Parker Andersons centres on the whole family, while Amelia Parker focuses more specifically on the particular experiences of Tony's teenage daughter Amelia (Millie Davis), who is still coping with the death of her mother and struggling with the anxiety disorder of selective mutism. The cast also includes Agape Mngomezulu, Akiel Julien, Charlie Zeltzer, Devin Ceccheto, Chris River, Sandy Jobin-Bevans, Jaida Grace, Kimberly Huie, Arista Arhin, and Madison Brydges. The series is filmed in Toronto, Ontario, and production commenced in October 2020. In advance of production, writer and showrunner Anthony Q. Farrell, who was already working with Marblemedia on the series Overlord and the Underwoods, was brought in to rewrite the scripts to ensure that they more authentically represented the show's Black characters. The shows premiered on Super Channel Heart & Home on April 19, 2021. They are also carried in the United States by BYUtv. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
