Where to Watch The Parkers in Canada

The Parkers is genuinely funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. It's currently available in the US on Netflix and Philo, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. An 8/10 rating means the audience agrees.

Originally commissioned by UPN, The Parkers quickly became exactly the kind of show that viewers rearrange their evenings for. Spunky daughter Kim is mortified when her bigger-than-life mom, Nikki, decides to go back to school at the same junior college she attends. The series ran for 5 seasons (1999–2004), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly.

Ideal for when you want something light without wanting something stupid. The Parkers respects its audience — rarer than it should be.
