The American adaptation of the Australian hit comedy series, "Kath & Kim" stars
Molly Shannon ("
Saturday Night Live") and
Selma Blair ("Hellboy 2") as the hilarious and iconoclastic mother-daughter duo.
NBC's "Kath & Kim" focuses on Kath (Shannon), a cheerful, foxy, forty-something, and her self-absorbed daughter, Kim (Blair), who have the love/hate, push/pull dysfunctional relationship that only a mother and daughter could share.
On "Kath & Kim," Kath has finally found love in the form of a sandwich shop owner named Phil Knight, played by
John Michael Higgins ("Best in Show"). Kim is a self-absorbed princess newly separated from her husband of six weeks, Craig (
Mikey Day, MTV's "Short Circuitz"). Kim decides to move back home, putting a damper on Kath's new romance.
Michelle Nader ("King of Queens") is executive producer and writer of "Kath & Kim." Original series creators and stars Gina Riley and Jane Turner serve as executive producers of "Kath & Kim" along with Rick McKenna and Nader. "Kath & Kim" is a production from Reveille for Universal Media Studios.
