First Look At 20th Television’s “Good American Family”
Disney has released some first look images of the upcoming original series, “Good American Family”, which will be coming to Hulu and Disney+ later this year.
Told from multiple points of view, as a means to explore issues of perspective, bias, and trauma, this compelling drama is inspired by the disturbing stories surrounding a Midwestern couple who adopts a girl with a rare form of dwarfism. But as they begin to raise her alongside their three biological children, mystery emerges around her age and background, and they slowly start to suspect she may not be who she says she is. As they defend their family from the daughter they’ve grown to believe is a threat, she fights her own battle to confront her past and what her future holds, in a showdown that ultimately plays out in the tabloids and the courtroom.
Check out the first look images below:
The series stars Ellen Pompeo in one of first major roles outside of “Grey’s Anatomy” in years. It also stars Mark Duplass and Imogen Reid. Dulé Hill, Christina Hendricks, Sarayu Blue and Jenny O’Hara are recurring guest stars.
Katie Robbins serves as creator and executive producer and ran the show with Executive Producer Sarah Sutherland. Ellen Pompeo executive produces through her production banner Calamity Jane with Laura Holstein. Andrew Stearn, Dan Spilo, Niles Kirchner and Mike Epps also executive produce. Liz Garbus directed and executive produced the pilot. The limited series is produced by 20th Television.
The eight episode series premieres March 19th, 2025 with two episodes, followed by one episode weekly on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States. The series will also be released on Disney+ internationally.
Roger’s Take: From the first look images and description, “Good American Family” certainly looks an interesting drama series and it’ll be interesting to see Ellen Pompeo in a role that’s not Merdith Grey, plus the storyline just seems very odd and perfect for a limited series.
