July 30, 201214 yr The big talk on NBC”s presentation day last week at the Television Critics Association Summer Press Tour was Ryan Murphy’s sitcom, The New Normal. In the series, Book of Mormon’s Andrew Rannells and The Hangover’s Justin Bartha star as gay couple Bryan and David, who decide to father a child through a surrogate (played by Georgia King) who joins them with her precocious daughter (Bebe Wood) and mother (Ellen Barkin) who puts Archie Bunker to shame with her extremely vocal bigotry. Add Real Housewives of Atlanta’s NeNe Leakes and you have one of the riskiest and most potentially offensive series of the new fall season.
July 30, 201214 yr Active Members It's a hard sell, but you have Ryan Murphy behind thew project, and a great cast. But still, the subject matter aint mainstream. Ill be watching. We shall see !
July 31, 201214 yr I've been waiting for another Archie Bunker type character in prime time. They have been too shy to do it for the last 35 years since "All In The Family" aired.
August 1, 201214 yr Active Members Sounds great but it's hard to imagine NBC doing *anything* daring! We shall see...
December 20, 201213 yr The New Normal continues to up the beefcake quotient, already having added Matt Bomer to a future episode, they've now tappedMark Consuelos and John Stamos for guest spots on the show.
