Short Summary
“When two teens get kicked out of their homes they must make the best of their unorthodox living arrangements with a 25-year-old couple to get a fresh start.”
Kith and Kin is a lighthearted family sitcom that will touch the soul of its viewers. Teenage years are tough, but when you add being kicked out of your parent's house to move in with your older brother it gets tougher. Andre Menderson must now attempt to cope with his awkward living situation with his older brother and sister-in-law. His childhood best friend Eric also has familial troubles when his newly divorced father kicks him out of his home. The two end up living together and who knows what adventures await them. Their perceptive partner in crime is Sasha, a quirky friend from school with a knack for foreign accents. The three of them learn life lessons from Andre’s older brother Corey and sister-in-law Nevaeh while embarking on the age-old journey of teenagerdom.

The Impact
The show is inspired by the 90’s hit show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and the 2000’s hit show Everybody Hates Chris episode Everybody Hates Houseguest.
The show mixes cultural upbringings, discusses mature topics, and is a coming-of-age story for different generation groups.
We hope that by telling this story, we will bring back that sitcom-type feel that we all know and love.
