“CHILDREN RUIN EVERYTHING”
Monday (8:30-9:00 p.m. ET) on The CW
Created by Golden Globe® and Emmy® Award-winner Kurt Smeaton (“Schitt’s Creek”), CHILDREN RUIN EVERYTHING is a half hour comedy that follows Astrid (Meaghan Rath, “Being Human,” “Hawaii Five-0”) and James (Aaron Abrams, “Blindspot,” “Hannibal”), as they raise their two young children in the city, while struggling to hold onto their pre-kid life. Illustrating the hilarious and varied ways kids can wreck happiness, alter plans, annihilate goals and dreams, and force parents to re-invent their lives, the series also explores how maybe that re-invented life is somewhat okay, too. Nowhere near as good as that old, really great life. But still kind of nice.
The series also stars Ennis Esmer (“Blindspot,” “Schitt’s Creek”), Nazneen Contractor (“Ransom,” “Heroes Reborn”), Logan Nicholson (“Blues Clues and You”), Mikayla SwamiNathan, Dmitry Chepovetsky (“Killjoys,” “Departure”), Veena Sood (“Corner Gas Animated,” “The Indian Detective”), Lisa Codrington (“Letterkenny,” “Anne With an E”), and Darius Rota.
CHILDREN RUIN EVERYTHING is from award-winning New Metric Media. Chuck Tatham (“Modern Family,” “Arrested Development,” “How I Met Your Mother”), multiple Canadian Screen Award-winner Mark Montefiore (“Letterkenny,” “Shoresy”) and Meaghan Rath are executive producers, with Alyson Richards (“The Retreat”) serving as producer. The series is produced by New Metric Media in association with Bell Media’s CTV, with the participation of the Canada Media Fund and Bell Fund.

After mustering up the courage to ask for more money at work, Astrid (Meaghan Rath) learns that not only is a raise not possible, but she might lose her job after a department audit. In hopes of scoring points with her arrogant boss, Astrid reluctantly goes into work on a Saturday. To Astrid’s annoyance, while she’s there to complete her tasks, her higher ups are slacking, making the day drag on longer than necessary. Frustrated, Astrid stands up to her boss, putting the future of her employment in jeopardy. After a change at home, James (Aaron Abrams) tries to busy himself with fixing a broken toilet. Meanwhile, GoBo goes viral when a popular influencer reps the crotchet brand. With demand high, Bo (Dmitry Chepovetsky) builds his new GoBo team with some unexpected employees. The episode was written by Kurt Smeaton and directed by Kelly Fyffe-Marshall (#310). Original airdate 3/14/2024.
