This may sound like an announcement for TV Land, but it really is for ABC. Deadline is reporting that Henry Winkler (Happy Days) and Judith Light (Who’s the Boss) will be co-starring in a new sitcom that is actually based on Winkler’s life with his son, Rob Reinis. The show is is coming from Everybody Loves Raymond creator, Phil Rosenthal and will actually be directed by Winkler’s son, director Max Winkler.
The Winkles centers on Jack (Domenick Lombardozzi), an emotionally reserved construction worker who learns about love, life and hugs while unexpectedly living with his in-laws — successful actor Henry (Winkler) and Tita Winkler (Light), the fabulous, fierce momma bear of the family.
