The Pemberton children she’s put in charge of are the 17-year-old feminista Sabrina (Sofia Black D’Elia), the “Alex Keaton in puberty” troublemaker Chip (Thomas Barbusca), and the guidance-lacking tot Ben (Jack Stanton).
Even if Mickey had a dozen arms, she would still have her hands full with these kids…and also vodka.
The Mick was created by brothers and It’s Always Sunny writers Dave and John Chernin, and that won’t be the most surprising thing in the world to anyone, as the two shows do share DNA expressed best through Kaitlin Olson’s (lower middle) class act Mackenzie “Mickey” Murphy.
Always looking for an easy way out, Mickey is introduced to audiences as she hits up her insanely wealthy sister for money, but unwittingly gets drafted as a surrogate guardian when said sister and her husband are carted off to jail for financial-based reasons.
