Extended Family, a sitcom premiering on NBC December 23, sees Jim and Julia, portrayed by Jon Cryer and Abigail Spencer, decide to continue raising their kids in the family home following their divorce, taking turns with who gets to stay in the apartment. Julia has found a new boyfriend, Boston Celtics owner Trey, played by Donald Faison, which further complicates the already complex scenario.
A few notes about the show: Extended Family is the uncommon series set in Boston, joining the Frasier reboot in Beantown. And the laugh track makes it feel like turning on a sitcom from the ’80s.
