Son of a Critch, a comedy based on the memoir by Canadian comedian Mark Critch, debuts on The CW July 24. The series details Critch’s boyhood in Newfoundland back in the ‘80s. Benjamin Evan Ainsworth portrays young Mark, Malcolm McDowell plays Mark’s grandfather, who he shares a bedroom with, and Mark Critch plays his father Mike, a radio personality.
As the show begins, Mark is 11 and terrified of the new school year, and a school full of cooler, tougher and typically larger kids.
