Many have been longing for a wholesome family drama infused with comedy and strong positive images. Sound familiar? Well, for those with hallowed memories of The Cosby Show that gave us TV’s lovable Huxtable family, maybe our appetites will be fed again.
Tracee Ellis Ross and Malcom-Jamal Warner return to television on Tuesdays, at 10:00PM and 10:30 PM ET/PT, in BET Network' brand new original scripted comedy series REED BETWEEN THE LINES. Also starring Anna Maria Horsford and Melissa DeSousa, REED BETWEEN THE LINES is a modern day love story that follows a sexy, successful, African-American couple juggling three kids – Keenan (Nadji Anthony Jeter), Kaci (Zoe Soul) and Alexis (Zoe Hendrix), demanding careers and outspoken coworkers (Anna Maria Horsford and Melissa De Sousa).
Throughout the series, Dr. Carla Reed (Tracee Ellis Ross) has to manage multiple roles as psychologist, wife, mother, and friend. In the first episode, we see just how sticky multi-tasking can be when a female patient battling sex addiction ends up way too close to home. In the second episode, Dr. Alex Reed (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) realizes that being an NYU professor is sometimes easier than his multi-tasking roles including home schooling, as he struggles to walk the fine line between supportive husband and smothering dad, particularly when it comes to his baby girl, Alexis.
Ross and Warner also serve as producers along with executive producers Arthur Harris, Jacque Edmonds Cofer and Warren Hutcherson.
