SYNOPSIS
Blush. In an acclaimed, powerhouse performance, McLendon-Covey swaps the comedy pratfalls and overbearing mother role for which she’s famous to look at the flip-side of suburban life as the American dream turns into the American nightmare.
Behind the white picket fences, there are affairs, troubled teens, prescription drug use, and on the surface suburban housewife Cathy (McLendon-Covey – Reno 911, What Men Want) – has it all – a lovely home, a teenage daughter, a husband and a worthy job…But behind the facade her seemingly content life is crumbling and, after agreeing to cat-sit for her sister, she meets a free-wheeling mum and so begins an increasingly fraught journey through a mid-life crisis. Before she knows it, Cathy has become embroiled in another family’s imperfect lives just as she needs to sort her own.
