The Parker Andersons cast poses for a behind the scenes photo.
A blended family comedy series about a Black man marrying a white woman produced by a conservative, Mormon television studio sounds like a recipe for drama. And there was plenty of that behind the scenes on The Parker Andersons and Amelia Parker, two interconnected sitcoms about a chocolate-and-vanilla Brady Bunch.
The show is produced by Canada’s Marblemedia and Utah’s BYUtv. The latter is the television arm of Brigham Young University, a college sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Here’s a quick history lesson: Brigham Young was a Mormon leader who deemed Black skin a curse and Black-white intermarriage so sinful that the only way to cleanse the offence was with a beheading.
