The Williams family is known for throwing the biggest and most memorable parties in Chicago. From weddings to birthdays, they have created a name for themselves in the event planning business. But behind the scenes, things are not as picture-perfect as they seem. The Williams family’s own events are filled with drama, conflicts, and chaos, making them realize that sometimes, family can be more difficult to handle than clients.

The all-new half-hour situation comedy, “Mind Your Business,” gives viewers a sneak peek into the Williams family’s hectic and hilarious life. The show follows the Williams family as they navigate through various family events and try to keep their own family affairs under control. The series, set in Chicago, is produced by Harvest Studios and executive produced by Bentley Kyle Evans, the mastermind behind hit shows like “Martin” and “The Jamie Foxx Show.”

The talented ensemble cast includes Columbus Short (“Scandal,” “Stomp the Yard”) as Alfonso, Drew Sidora (“The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” “That’s So Raven”) as Aaliyah, Rolonda Watts (“Rolonda”) as Lucille, and award-winning singer and radio host Bebe Winans as Henry. Their chemistry and comedic timing bring these characters to life, making them relatable and lovable.

Like many small businesses, the Williams family’s event space, “Lucille’s Place,” took a massive hit during the pandemic, forcing them to shut down. But thanks to Henry’s determination, he recruits his fraternal twins, Aaliyah and Alfonso, to keep the business in the family. With Aaliyah’s creativity and Alfonso’s business savvy, they turn “Lucille’s Place” into a safe space for planning and hosting events. But their familial ties and differing personalities often lead to hilarious mishaps and conflicts.

The team is also joined by Alfonso’s wife, Kimberly, and son, A.J., who add their own flair and chaos to the family business. And even Aaliyah’s chosen family member, Mia, joins the team, bringing her own set of skills and drama.

But it’s not just the Williams family causing chaos at “Lucille’s.” The series also features the talented Caryn Ward Ross (“Fame,” “Monogamy,” “Patterns of Attraction”) as the sassy event planner, Brely Evans (“Ambitions,” “Being Mary Jane,” “The Man in 3B”) as Aaliyah’s best friend, and newcomers Bryce Xavier and Chloe Elise Ellis.

The 10-episode first season of “Mind Your Business” will premiere this summer, leading up to the return of Bounce’s hit series “Johnson.” Viewers can tune in every Saturday, starting August 3rd at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT, for new episodes of “Johnson.” Get ready for a summer filled with laughter, drama, and unforgettable moments with the Williams family in “Mind Your Business.”
