DINNER WITH THE PARENTS: FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER SET FOR U.S REMAKE

Freevee have announced a direct to series American remake of Friday Night Dinner - 'Dinner With The Parents' from Big Talk and CBS Studios.

The series will be set in the USA but filmed in the UK. Casting will be American actors. Casting is currently underway.

Freevee, Amazon’s premium free streaming service, has ordered Dinner With the Parents, adapted from the U.K’s Channel 4 award winning series written by Robert Popper Friday Night Dinner, as a straight to series order from CBS Studios with Big Talk.

In this half-hour single camera comedy, two brothers in their 20s who go to their mom and dad’s for dinner each week, somehow get through it without actually, physically, dying of embarrassment.

If your 54-year-old dad has ever “dabbed” while shirtless in front of your girlfriend, or your mom won’t stop bringing up that time when you had to be rushed to the pediatrician after an incident with a shampoo bottle, which is why your brother still calls you “Pert Plus,” you will relate to this show.

If not, must be nice!
