Kaitlin Olson’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia follow-up, The Mick, will premiere on Sunday, Jan. 1, 2017 at 8/7c after the NFL doubleheader, Fox announced Wednesday.
The following Tuesday, Jan. 3, the comedy will make its timeslot premiere at 8:30.
In the series, Olson plays Mackenzie “Mickey” Murphy, described by the network as “a hapless mess, a wry-humored, hard-drinking, cigarette-smoking, living-large kind of gal, always ‘between’ jobs, and always broke. A scrappy survivor who’s run out of options, she decides to pay her rich sister a visit, hoping for a little handout. What she gets, instead, is a full-time baby-sitting gig, when her sister and husband are forced to flee the country” to avoid a federal indictment.
Sofia Black D’Elia (The Night Of), Thomas Barbusca (American Horror Story), Carla Jimenez (Last Man Standing) and newcomers Jack Stanton and Scott MacArthur co-star.
