I kinda wanted to pick The Family Plan back up but turns out it's already been picked up :P (I also don't know if this is a pilot or a series, what's the difference? I'm confused Dx)

"Not My Family" is another family comedy, but this time its an adoptive family. Jakob and Maria Moore adopt children from different cultures (kinda like the JESSIE family) because they have no kids of their own.

The cast is as follows:

The show revolves around a semi-dysfunctional family made up of several cultures trying to find a way to make things work. I've actually already got some ideas for casting, and if this gets picked up I'd like to make Sandy Greene the lead.
 * Cierra Moore - The middle Moore child, at age 13. She's from Mexico and is the main character of the series. She has been with many families, all in Mexico, and isn't used to people actually caring for her. As a result, she becomes distant from her family at first, refusing to talk to them more than she's required to.
 * Amar Moore - The second-youngest Moore child, at age 6. He's very impressionable and looks up to his older siblings. Cierra's attitude to her new family easily upsets him, but he starts to believe her when she tells him that his parents don't really love him.
 * Jennifer Moore - The oldest Moore child, at age 14. She is the only child adopted from America and was the first child that Jakob and Maria adopted. She is wise beyond her years and is a super-nerd.
 * Mei Moore - The youngest Moore child, at age 1. She's from China and was only adopted a few weeks before the series begins.
 * Jakob Moore - The Moore dad. He works in an office and has to go on business trips regularly, which makes the already uncomfortable and unloved Cierra feel even more unloved.
 * Maria Moore - The Moore mom. It was her idea to adopt the children, and she runs her own catering business, often requesting her children's help in taste-testing.
 * Cody Michaels - Cierra's best friend. He's the first person to talk to her when she arrives in America. He could also be a possible love interest for her later in the series, but for the first part of the series, he's just her best friend.

So, what do you think? :)
