Benjamin Stockham Tells JJJ Why We Should Watch 'About a Boy' This Saturday!

Check out Benjamin Stockham in these episode stills from his upcoming new show About a Boy!

The 13-year-old actor stars in the new NBC comedy alongside New Girl‘s David Walton.

Here’s the synposis: Will Freeman (Walton) lives a charmed existence. After writing a hit song, he was granted a life of free time, free love and freedom from financial woes. He’s single, unemployed and loving it.

So imagine his surprise when Fiona (Minnie Driver), a needy single mom and her oddly charming 11-year-old son, Marcus (Stockham), move in next door and disrupt his perfect world.

“I think that people should tune in to About a Boy because it’s going to be a lot of fun to watch,” Benjamin told JJJ. “It will make you laugh and it will also have some tender moments too. Will and Marcus have a lot of fun together and Minnie, David, and Al [Madrigal] are all super funny and really talented! I think that Will, Fiona, and Marcus are all characters that people will love to care about and root for.”

About a Boy premieres this Saturday, February 22 @ 11PM following the Olympics coverage on NBC. Then you can catch it in its regular time slot every Tuesday @ 9PM starting February 25!
