2 New Previews of Parenthood on NBC by Larson Hill
Fresh on the heels of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, NBC will roll out the new series, Parenthood, starring Craig T. Nelson, Bonnie Bedelia, Lauren Graham, Dax Shepherd, Peter Krause, and Erika Christensen. Based on the 1989 film by Ron Howard, Parenthood is the second attempt at a series inspired by the film, as an earlier Parenthood series aired on NBC during the 1990-1991 season. Although the new Parenthood was first scheduled to air in September 2009, the Parenthood production was pushed back due to the breast cancer diagnosis of original cast member Maura Tierney who has since been replaced by Lauren Graham.
Now that Parenthood is back on track, fans of family centered drama can look forward to the Parenthood premiere on NBC in March 2010.
Check out the latest previews of Parenthood below after the official Parenthood synopsis.
Parenthood Synopsis:
From the executive producers of the box-office hit "Parenthood," Ron Howard and Brian Grazer (Oscar winners for "A Beautiful Mind"), and writer/executive producer Jason Katims ("Friday Night Lights"), this contemporary re-imagining of the blockbuster film depicts the colorful and imperfect Braverman family - four grown siblings sharing the headaches, heartaches, and joy of being parents. The star-studded cast includes Peter Krause, Maura Tierney, Craig T. Nelson, Dax Shepard, Bonnie Bedelia, Monica Potter, Erika Christensen and Mae Whitman.
When Sarah Braverman (Tierney, "ER"), a financially strapped single mother, returns home to her parents and siblings in Berkeley, California, after packing up her Fresno apartment and uprooting her two inconvenienced kids, Amber (Whitman, "In Treatment") and Drew (Miles Heizer, "ER"), she is greeted by her opinionated father, Zeek (Nelson, "Family Stone," "Coach"), and strong mother, Camille (Bedelia, "Heart Like A Wheel"), who are privately dealing with their own marital issues. As Sarah is reunited with her siblings -- sister, Julia (Christensen, "Traffic"), and brothers Crosby (Shepard, "Baby Mama") and Adam (Krause, "Six Feet Under") -- all struggling with issues of their own, it’s clear that the Braverman reunion is just what they need to face the everyday challenges of modern family life. "Parenthood" is a production from Imagine Entertainment and Universal Media Studios. Emmy winner Thomas Schlamme ("The West Wing") directs the pilot.
