1600 Penn Premieres on NBC on December 17, 2012



The Gilchrists are just the average American family dealing with all the everyday issues, like a grown kid who's forced to move back home, teenagers who are smarter than their teachers and a stepmom (Jenna Elfman) desperately trying to win over the kids. They're loving, fun and a little crazy. In other words, just like everyone else - with one exception: they live in a very special house. The White House!

Whether it's entertaining foreign dignitaries, holding secret cabinet meetings, or putting out fires - figuratively and sometimes literally - there's never a dull moment in the Gilchrist White House. For example, the First Son (Josh Gad, star of Broadway sensation "The Book of Mormon") is one of the administration's biggest liabilities but also the glue that holds this family together. The President (Bill Pullman) knows too well that the only thing harder than being Head of State is being head of the family.

"Modern Family" meets "The West Wing" in this election-year comedy from Emmy-winning executive producer/director Jason Winer ("Don't Trust the B----- in Apartment 23," "Modern Family").

Skip trying to build up the confidence to ask Stacey out was interestin but 11:17 was a little creepy as he knew her schedule  and I'm not surprised Senator Thoroughgood was so unlikable with the way he spoke to everyone but Skip putting Stacey on the spot in front of everyone was crazy
