STAGE TUBE: Pilot Episode of NBC's THE NEW NORMAL, Starring Andrew Rannells, Justin Bartha & Ellen Barkin

Fans can now view the pilot episode of NBC's new comedy THE NEW NORMAL two weeks before it airs on NBC! The series, starring Broadway vets Andrew Rannells and Ellen Barkin, will premiere on September 11th at 9:30/ET. Check out the episode below! 

In the new NBC comedy THE NEW NORMAL, Bryan (Andrew Rannells, "Girls," "The Book of Mormon") and David (Justin Bartha, "The Hangover") are a Los Angeles couple and they have it all. Well, almost. With successful careers and a committed, loving partnership, there is one thing that this couple is missing: a baby.

And just when they think the stars will never align, enter Goldie (Georgia King, "One Day"), an extraordinary young woman with a checkered past. A Midwestern waitress and single mother looking to escape her dead-end life and small-minded grandmother (Emmy and Tony Award-winner Ellen Barkin), Goldie decides to change everything and move to L.A. with her precocious eight year-old daughter. Desperate and broke – but also fertile – Goldie quickly becomes the guys' surrogate and quite possibly the girl of their dreams. Surrogate mother, surrogate family.

Ryan Murphy (“Glee”) serves as creator/executive producer and director along with creator/executive producer Ali Adler ("Glee," "Chuck") and executive producer Dante di Loreto ("Glee," "American Horror Story"). "The New Normal" is produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Ryan Murphy Productions.
