Creator Catherine Reitman's “Workin’ Moms” has found a devout audience among those who like their laughs served relatably — and with a hearty side of absurdity.
“I’m driving home, and he says to me, ‘Look, tomorrow’s your last day on set. It’s been a seven-year journey. How do you want to do this? Do you want to give a speech? Do you want to go out to dinner?’” Reitman said. “And I was so annoyed. I was furious.”
The lightbulb for “Workin’ Moms” went off when Reitman was — surprise! — working. “I was in the throes of postpartum depression and didn’t even know it,” said Reitman, “I kind of held my breath and braced for backlash when it aired and … nothing. Not a peep,” Kind said. “I think that’s a real testament to how badly we needed and continue to need this on our screens. And by ‘this,’ I mean a true look at who and why women are having abortions. The truth.”
It’s a lesson Reitman is revisiting. After years of rejection, the actress is landing a successful show and ready to launch another. And just as she’s peaking professionally, one of her now elementary-school-age sons is having a health issue and needs her at home.“I’m in this compromised position. It’s not as simple as back in the day when I was just like, ‘Oh, I choose to work’ or ‘I choose to stay at home,’ and guilt be damned,” she said. “There’s nothing more important to [my son] than me.
