The US comedy from Glee and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy about the 'new normal' family. Beverly Hills couple Bryan (Andrew Rannells) and David (Justin Bartha) are convinced that a baby is the one thing missing from their fabulous life. They seek the help of a surrogate in an effort to make their dream a reality and are paired up with Goldie (Georgia King), a waitress and single mum from Ohio who has recently arrived in California on the run from her dead-end existence. Goldie needs the surrogacy payment to look after her daughter Shania (Bebe Wood) and fulfil her ambition of going back to college. However, when her small-minded grandmother Jane (Ellen Barkin) turns up in hot pursuit, she is determined to prevent Goldie from going through with the arrangement. Will Goldie manage to defy Jane and create the beginnings of a new family unit, or will Bryan and David's baby dreams be thwarted? Gwyneth Paltrow makes a cameo appearance. The next new episode can be seen on E4 on Thursday 17 January.
