NEW YORK - October 23, 2017 - Starting today, SHOWTIME is giving viewers an early opportunity to sample the series premiere of the network's new half-hour comedy SMILF. The series, created, starring and executive produced by Frankie Shaw, is based on her Sundance Film Festival Jury Award-winning short film of the same name. At the end of the episode, SHOWTIME is offering fans a sneak peek of an exclusive scene from the season eight premiere of the network's No. 1 comedy SHAMELESS.

SHOWTIME is releasing SMILF early, ahead of its on-air debut Sunday, November 5 at 10 p.m. ET/PT, following the 9 p.m. ET/PT season premiere of the SHAMELESS.

The new eight-episode, half-hour SHOWTIME comedy is a raw, honest look at the life of a 20-something single mom from quadruple threat Shaw. SMILF takes a comedic look at the life of Bridgette Bird (Shaw), a young woman from South Boston whose desires for relationships, sex and a career collide with the realities of working-class single motherhood. Shaw brings her singular, unapologetic point of view to the semi-autobiographical comedy series. The cast includes multiple Emmy(R) winner Rosie O'Donnell in her first series regular TV role as Bridgette's prideful, outspoken Southie mother, along with Miguel Gomez, Samara Weaving and Alexandra and Anna Reimer.
