Brand new ITV Studios format “My Mum, Your Dad” lands in ten territories

ITV Studios announced ten new commissions for the hot new reality dating format “My Mum, Your Dad,” created by father-daughter duo Greg and Hayley Daniels, originally for HBO Max. Following the acquisition of international rights via ITV America and the Global Creative Network, ITV Studios labels have secured first season orders from ITV in the UK, TV4 in Sweden and the Nine Network in Australia.

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 United States, the UK, Sweden and Australia, six more territories already bring the total number of commissions of the format to ten.

“My Mum, Your Dad” 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 humorous cringe moments to heartwarming 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.

“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,”  commented Arjan Pomper, Managing Director of Global Entertainment at ITV Studios

“My Mum, Your Dad” originated in the United States (where it is called “My Mom, Your Dad”), produced by ITV Entertainment in association with Rombola Entertainment. The executive producers are Greg Daniels, Haley Daniels, Simon Thomas, and Bernie Schaeffer, while Sam Dean is the showrunner.
