Who's the Boss? Now on Hulu; The CW Announces New Series Wild Cards

The classic '80s sitcom Who's the Boss? is now streaming on Hulu with all eight seasons! "There's a time for love, and a time for streaming..." When his career is cut short by injuries, an ex-Major League baseball player and single dad goes to work as a live-in housekeeper for a high-powered advertising executive and single mom. Starring Tony Danza, Judith Light, Alyssa Milano, Danny Pintauro and Katherine Helmond. The reboot version for Freevee is in the works, but still no word. Set 30 years after the events of the original series, the sequel will focus on former Major League Baseball player/retired housekeeper Tony Micelli (Danza) and his relationship with his daughter Samantha (Milano). She is now a single mother, living in the family house. In line with Lear's classic shows, the new comedy will explore generational differences, as well as opposing worldviews and parenting styles within the dynamic of a modern family.

Wild Cards - Vanessa Morgan and Giacomo Gianniotti

The CW Network announced the new original series Wild Cards starring Vanessa Morgan (Riverdale) and Giacomo Gianniotti (Grey's Anatomy, Reign) will premiere on Wednesday, January 17 (8:00-9:00pm ET/PT) followed by the season three premiere of returning favorite drama Family Law (9:00-10:00pm ET/PT) starring Jewel Staite (Firefly, The L.A. Complex) and Victor Garber (DC's Legends of Tomorrow). Wild Cards is a crime-solving procedural with a comedic twist that follows the unlikely duo of a by-the-book, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Cole Ellis (Giacomo Gianniotti) is a demoted detective who has begrudgingly spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max Mitchell (Vanessa Morgan) has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. Acclaimed actor Jason Priestley (Beverly Hills, 90210) joins the cast as George, Max’s father and a master con man. Season three of FAMILY LAW follows Abby (Jewel Staite) and her dysfunctional family as they help other dysfunctional families – all while navigating their own personal dramas.
