Catch Last Season's Holiday Sitcom The Moodys Before Season 2; Tiffani Thiessen Hosting Deliciousness, Spin-off of Ridiculousness

The Moodys

This holiday season, Fox Entertainment and its free ad-supported video-on-demand (AVOD) streaming platform, Tubi, will jointly encore Fox's critically acclaimed comedy, The Moodys, starring and executive-produced by Emmy Award and Golden Globe nominees Denis Leary (Rescue Me) and Elizabeth Perkins (Sharp Objects). Beginning this Wednesday, Nov. 25, Tubi will stream all six episodes of The Moodys' freshman season, while Fox will air the sitcom's first two episodes on Sunday, Dec. 20, from 8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT. The Moodys marks Fox's first scripted series to be made available on Tubi. The platform currently streams the network's hit unscripted programs The Masked Singer, I Can See Your Voice, Lego Masters, Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back, Beat Shazam and Ultimate Tag.

Recently renewed for a second season to premiere this coming spring, The Moodys follows a tight knit, but slightly dysfunctional, family through their misadventures. The family includes SEAN SR. (Leary), his wife, ANN (Perkins), and their three grown children - DAN (Francois Arnaud, Midnight, Texas), the youngest of the siblings and the "creative one"; BRIDGET (Chelsea Frei, Sideswiped), the middle sister and the "overachiever"; and SEAN JR. (Jay Baruchel, Man Seeking Woman, How to Train Your Dragon franchise), the oldest sibling and "screw-up," still living at home with his parents. The Moodys also features María Gabriela de Faría (Deadly Class), Josh Segarra (Orange Is the New Black), Kevin Bigley (Here and Now) and Gerry Dee (Mr. D.).
