This week (July 10th), we got our first look at Wayne Brady’s new show that will premiere in a few weeks. Click inside to check out the trailer for it!
Everyone knows Wayne Brady – actor, comedian, host, singer and preeminent multihyphenate of this generation – but there’s more to the man seen onstage. What happens when such an iconic entertainer peels back the curtain on the realities of an unexpected life?
In Wayne Brady: The Family Remix, Brady has turned the term “modern family” on its head. He’s still best friends with his ex-wife, soulmate and business partner, Mandie Taketa. Together, they co-parent their 21-year-old daughter, student and aspiring artist Maile Brady, as well as run their production company, A Wayne & Mandie Creative (Wayne Brady’s Comedy IQ). Jason Michael Fordham, Mandie’s life partner since 2009, handles the family’s cinematography and post-production, and Mandie and Jason have an almost 3-year-old son, Sundance-Isamu.
With Brady at a sudden crossroads in his life, Wayne Brady: The Family Remix offers an intimate look into his blended family’s personal life, revealing unexpected points of view and values that most people (including his own family) have a hard time understanding. People see their social media posts – from vacations to dancing TikToks – but what’s behind the joyful 15 seconds of fun? Their real life is not always as easy and simple as it seems.
Wayne Brady: The Family Remix is a production of Fremantle and A Wayne & Mandie Creative. The reality series will premiere on Freeform on Wednesday, July 24th at 10:00 p.m. EDT and will be available on Hulu the next day. While we wait, check out the show’s official trailer and let us know what you think about it.
