Television icon, talk show host and comedic author Alan Thicke (“Growing Pains,” “How I Met Your Mother”), one of Hollywood’s most famous dads on- and off-screen, will star in Unusually Thicke.

It is a 14-episode original reality sitcom for TVGN premiering on Wednesday, April 16 at 10:00 PM, ET/PT.

Unusually Thicke puts the spotlight on a real-life modern family—Alan, his beautiful, spicy and much-younger wife Tanya, and his dry witted, often opinionated 16-year-old son Carter—in a series that follows the fun and humor that happens in their everyday lives.

“Unusually Thicke combines my two favorite things: family… and laughing at my family,” remarked Alan.

It is an original series that blends reality television with situation comedy. The series is produced by Peacock Alley Entertainment.
