Universal Cable Productions' critically-acclaimed sitcom Playing House will return to USA Network for a third season. The comedy is from Universal Cable Productions and is executive produced by series' stars Jessica St. Clair and Lennon Parham. Last season,

Comcast and NBCUniversal introduced a new distribution model which allowed viewers to watch every episode of Playing House on Video-On-Demand (VOD) before it aired on USA Network. This not only gave the super fans early access to new episodes, but drove new viewers to the series. As a result, Playing House doubled its VOD audience from season one to season two and, based on the broad partnership with Comcast, the show was #3 on the XFINITY on Demand platform during its premiere month in August, beating all other broadcast and basic cable offerings.
