Elise Neal: Returns to TBS with Third Season of 'My Manny'

Comments (4)


This month, 'My Manny' starring 'Hustle & Flow' actress Elise Neal and 'ER' actor Sharif Atkins is returning for a third installment to TBS.

The sitcom is called a micro-series because it will air within commercial time during Tyler Perry's 'Meet the Browns,' every Wednesday evening for five consecutive weeks. This new type of programming is the network's way of retaining viewers during commercial breaks and integrating a brand through a natural story line.


'My Manny' follows Jennifer, played by Neal, as a widow and successful caterer, who hires Mike the Manny (a male nanny) to care for her 8 year-old son, and ends up falling for him.

This time around, Disney Parks is on board as the show's exclusive sponsor and the episodes follow the family as they on vacation to The Magic Kingdom and Epcot.

'My Manny,' which debuted in Jan. 2009 within Perry's wildly popular 'House of Payne' series, also stars Alana Ubach, Greg Alan Williams and Tarren Mason. Each of the ten episodes will encore online at TBS.com.

'My Manny' premieres on Feb.24.
