The Canadian-produced show was created by actress and writer Catherine Reitman (who starred in Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Knocked Up), who suffered from postpartum depression after both her sons were born.
At the time, her husband Philip Sternberg (who stars in the series alongside Catherine as her on-screen husband) urged her to write down her experiences – she told Glamour she would “imagine sinister things” like being hit by a bus just so she would have to go to hospital and be taken care of. It helped. “By fleshing out my sadness, exposing the strange and funny angles to it, I began to recognize the ‘me’ that I was prior to having my son,” she shared with Glamour.
And that’s where the script for Workin’ Moms came from.
The comedy series follows four women in a mum’s group who are just returning to work from maternity leave. Dealing with postpartum depression and everyday struggles like trying to shower with a baby in the bathroom, mums all over the world are praising it for being so relatable.
The show has just finished filming its fourth season, which will air in 2020.
