The series, premiering on Wednesday, Nov. 30 at 9:30/8:30c, follows single moms Annie (Pressly) and Nikki (Katie Finneran), who realize that by raising their daughters to be cool (as opposed to the nerds they were in high school), they have actually created two bratty monsters. “The relationship between Annie, my character, and my daughter Sophie is actually a really good one,” Pressly says. Adds Kristi Lauren, who plays Annie’s daughter: “Annie let Sophie grow up without a lot of rules and so Sophie thinks, ‘Oh, I can do whatever I want.’ They always have this struggle for power.”

Mark Consuelos joins I Hate My Teenage Daughter

The question is whether both women can (finally) start disciplining their daughters, but also keeping those mother-daughter bonds intact. “My problem is that I always want my daughter to love me so much,” Finneran says with a laugh.

Fox’s upcoming comedy I Hate My Teenage Daughter has tapped Mark Consuelos to recur as a teacher-turned crush interest for Pressly’s character Annie, TVLine has learned.

Kelly Ripa’s other half will play Carlos Castillo, a Spanish professor at the local community college where Pressly and Katie Finneran’s characters have enrolled. Before you can say Te quiero, Pressly’s Annie soon finds herself being asked out on a date by Mr. Castillo.

Others joining All My Children vet Consuelos in guest spots on the freshman series include Bridesmaids scene-stealer Wendi McLendon-Covey and Pretty Little Liars‘ Keegan Allen.

I HATE MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER, the new family comedy starring Jaime Pressly and Katie Finneran as single moms, best friends – and former nerds – who fear their privileged and overly indulged daughters are turning out just like the mean girls who picked on them in high school, will now debut on Wednesday, Nov. 30 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) after THE X FACTOR on FOX.

* The cast seems to know that the title sounds a little harsh, but Pressly wanted to clarify that the title isn’t the pervasive feeling of the show, but the point that your kids can sometimes drive you to. Pressly said “every parent has that moment where they want to break down and just scream.” The actress thinks the show is relatable to many people, but parents of teens especially, who Pressly thinks “will be able to escape and realize they’re not alone” in the “hormone hell” they’re in with their children.
* Pressly and Finneran talked about what they were like as teenagers, and Pressly said she was “treated like dirt by the mean girls,” in North Carolina until she moved to California, describing her young self as an outcast and a tomboy. Finneran seemed to have it easier, saying she was friends with everybody — “the nice girl, the designated driver.”
* The actresses who play the mean-girl teenage daughters, Aisha Dee and Kristi Lauren, seemed to be far nicer than their onscreen couterparts, though Lauren joked that her parents are worried she’s “going to turn into her character.” Dee said it was “fun to get to play the kind of person everyone wants to be,” to which Pressly (who has lots of antagonistic roles on her résumé) cracked, “flat out, it’s fun to play the bitch, ask me.”
* Pressly is best known for her Emmy-winning role of Joy on My Name Is Earl, but she copped to her success being as much of a curse as it is a blessing. She was “very scared that I wasn’t going to be able to get another show for a very long time,” because “it’s so easy to be pigeonholed” now that so many people associate her with Joy. Naturally, she said she was very grateful to the showrunners of this show for bringing her on.

Bilsing-Graham added that she thinks a multi-camera comedy fits well with Fox’s programming, more known for reality and animation than situation comedy of any kind. “I think reality television actually helps multi-camera; it has the same energy,“ she said.

Speaking of interaction with an audience, both producers are big fans of the audience reaction on Deadline. “I love the comments…they’re brutal!” Kreamer enthused.
