The new comedy series Fam, starring Nina Dobrev, Tone Bell, Tony winner Brian Stokes Mitchell, and Tony nominee Sheryl Lee Ralph, will debut on CBS January 10, 2019, at 9:30 PM ET.

The series concerns a woman whose vision of a perfect life with her adoring fiancé and his wonderful parents is radically altered when her 16-year-old, out-of-control half-sister unexpectedly comes to live with her.

The cast also includes Odessa Adlon. Scott Ellis, as previously reported, directed the pilot.
