Sunny Side Up!

Sunny Side Up! is a Freeform original comedy series that premiered on June 16th, 2016. The series follows Jenny, a 20-something year old in New York City who just recently split up from her fiance and lost her license to practice as a nurse after an outburst at work. Jenny tries to begin a new life by moving in with her best friend Daisy and Daisy's mother Carrie-Ann and later finds out she's expecting a child. She befriends her gay barista Tim and sets her eyes on her handsome new neighbor Atticus.

The show airs on Freeform in the United States on Thursdays, and the following day episodes are added exclusively to Netflix users worldwide.

Series Overview
Jenny was the best nurse all of New York City could ask for. She also had the hottest fiance a girl could ask for. But when Andy came out as gay and left Jenny for her gardener, she lost the ability to cope and "went crazy" at work. While the audience doesn't know what exactly Jenny did, it resulted in her losing her licence to practice as a nurse. Jenny decides she needs to start fresh and moves into an apartment with her best friend Daisy and Daisy's eccentric mother Carrie-Ann. Things are going well until Jenny discovers she's pregnant!

Jenny sets her eyes on the boy next door, Atticus, a tall, dark and handsome British man with a law degree and a six-pack. While job-hunting she also befriends her local coffee shop barista, Tim - a flamboyant gay man with a passion for fashion and... basketball.

Casting
Regina Harper was first rumored to be attached to the project in October 2015. In January 2016 it was announced Harper would play the lead role of Jenny, filming the show during the filming hiatus of Initiate, which airs on ABC.

March 2016 saw the announcement of Candice Accola as Daisy Sinclair and Jane Lynch as Carrie-Ann Sinclair respectively. Later that month it was revealed that Donald Glover would be playing Tim Fletcher. In April 2016, the final main cast member to be announced was Julian Morris who would play the role of Atticus Cole.

In May 2016, it was revealed in a Freeform press release that Andrew Lees joined the show for a recurring role as Andy Hutch, Jenny's ex-fiancé, and Cristián de la Fuente would be playing his boyfriend Eduardo, Jenny's ex-gardener. Annabeth Gish was cast in a recurring role as Jenny's overbearing and overly-cynical mother Julie Royster.

Seasons
Freeform ordered a 10-episode first season due to air in June 2016. A 20-episode season was initially the plan until Regina Harper was considered for the lead role but could not commit to 20 episodes due to her contract with ABC for their primetime thriller Initiate.
