How You Know The Cast Of ‘Broke’ On CBS

We could all probably use a little bit of comedy in our lives right now, meaning the time is perfect for the premiere of CBS’ newest show, “Broke.”

According to a synopsis, the show follows a family who is forced to contend with one another in new ways when hard times fall on the members who were formerly affluent.

“Jackie, a single suburban mother who’s shocked when her estranged sister, Elizabeth, her sister’s outrageously wealthy, big-hearted, Latin husband, Javier, and Javier’s fiercely loyal assistant/driver/friend land on her doorstep in need of a place to live after the couple’s money dries up,” the synopsis reads. “Though class differences may separate the women, and the size of the house and the number of people living in it will test the limits of family ties, the familiar bond of sisterhood might be the catalyst they need to restore their relationship.”

So will bring these characters to life and bring the laughs to TV screens? Get to know the cast below.
