    Nick at Nite Debuts Instant Mom, Original Family Comedy Starring Tia Mowry-Hardrict, Sunday, Sept. 29, At 8:30 P.M. (ET/PT) Brand-New Nick at Nite Series Co-Stars Michael Boatman and Sheryl Lee Ralphand also Airs at 10 p.m. on NickMom SANTA MONICA, Calif., Sept. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Nick at Nite will premiere Instant Mom, the brand-new, live-action family sitcom starring and produced by Tia Mowry-Hardrict (star of STYLE Network's hit series Tia & Tamera), on Sunday, Sept. 29, at 8:30 p.m. (all times ET/PT). The multi-camera, scripted half-hour series features Mowry-Hardrict as Stephanie, a party girl who trades in Cosmos for carpools when she marries Charlie (Michael Boatman, Spin City), who already has three kids. Airing regularly on Nick at Nite Sundays at 8:30 p.m. (ET/PT), the series also will air on the adult-targeted NickMom comedy block on the Nick Jr. channel at 10p.m. (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130905/NY74999 ) "In Instant Mom, Tia vividly captures what it's like to jump into motherhood with nearly zero experience, and her stepchildren take a front row in her labors," said Russell Hicks, Nickelodeon's President of Content Development and Production. "Their comedic and authentic approach to their disparities as a new family will make audiences fall in love with the growing and heartfelt appreciation for each other and for the all-embracing blended family they are now a part of." Instant Mom follows Stephanie as she struggles to maintain some sense of her fun-loving, slightly irresponsible life while managing being a full-time stepmom.
