Motherland - Pilot ep - Clips - Paul Ready as Kevin (2016)

Pilot Ep of Motherland P/R as Kevin Bradly Meet the alpha mums, headed by Amanda, very much the queen bee. Everything is organized, clean and sparkly - even the kitchen cork board is a statement of success. At the other end of the spectrum, we meet Liz, who is totally chaotic and feels the kids should enjoy free expression - if they want to do kamikaze jumps off the sofa, she drags a mattress round for safety. Somewhere between Amanda and Liz is Julia - she is organized - she has to be as she is a successful events organizer - but when her mother Marion decides she is no longer going to be the free child-sitter and school-run taxi, Julia finds her organization skills are taxed and nowhere near the level of the alpha mums. Also in the mix is Kevin - he is the stay-at-home dad, who, rather than fighting against that, is embracing it with gusto - much to the irritation of the other mums. This is mothers and they really are - coping or not - competitive and helpful. If the Pulling girls had kids, this is what it would be like.
