What is The Moodys about?

The Moodys, an American television sitcom, portrays the familial and comedic escapades of the Moody family, anchored by spouses Sean Moody Sr. (Denis Leary) and Ann Moody (Elizabeth Perkins).

Fox premiered the show with a two-episode back-to-back format, totaling six episodes for the first season. After renewal for a second season, which premiered on April 1, 2021, the show faced scheduling shifts before its eventual cancellation. 'The Moodys' concluded with its series finale airing on June 20, 2021, leaving behind a comedic legacy defined by its portrayal of a tight-knit, albeit slightly dysfunctional family unit.
