Created by father-daughter duo Greg and Hayley Daniels, originally for HBO MAX, the programme follows a group of single parents who have been nominated by their teenage kids for a second chance at love. The parents move into a house together, unaware that their adult children are right down the street living in a second house, watching their every move through hidden cameras and manipulating their encounters. From cringe moments to confessions, the kids will see their parents in a whole new light as they are presented with opportunities to select who they’ll be matched with on one-on-one dates, and who may join the family dinner for years to come.

The show will launch on the NINE Network this year, produced by ITV Studios Australia, with the UK and Swedish versions - to be produced by ITV Studios’ UK label Lifted Entertainment and ITV Studios Sweden - due to launch in 2023. In addition to the US, the UK, Sweden and Australia, six more territories will be announced by the commissioning broadcasters/platforms soon.

My Mum, Your Dad originated in the US, produced by ITV Entertainment in the US in association with Rombola Entertainment. Executive producers are Greg Daniels and Haley Daniels, Simon Thomas, Bernie Schaeffer and showrunner Sam Dean.

Commenting on the deals, ITV Studios Global Entertainment MD Arjan Pomper said: “We are extremely excited about My Mum, Your Dad. Growing to ten territories within a few months is exceptional. With this brilliant dating format travelling so fast, we are confident that many more audiences around the world will soon embrace it.”
