When two-bit loser Mickey’s rich sister and brother-in-law are sent to prison, she is stuck with looking after their three ultra-high maintenance kids – and putting the irresponsible Mickey in charge is not even close to a good idea.
That’s the premise of FOX’s new comedy series, The Mick – which is getting a primo premiere following FOX’s NFL doubleheader on Sunday, January 1st (8/7C) before settling into its regular time slot on Tuesday, January 3rd (8:31/7:31C).
The Mick stars Kaitlin Olson (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) as Mickey. For an extended teaser and series description, read on.
