The Great Giveback With Melissa McCarthy and Jenna Perusich
SERIES PREMIERE
Monday, June 13, 9/8c, HGTV
GENEROSITY CAN'T BE overrated, and actress-fashion designer Melissa McCarthy and her cousin Jenna Perusich hammer that point home-literally-in HGTV's newest home-sweeter-home series. Over six episodes of The Great Giveback With Melissa McCarthy and Jenna Perusich, the two refurbish spaces to surprise do-gooders like combat veteran Katie in the premiere or, later, inner-city nonprofit director Mynor, all nominated by loved ones. Giveback "reminds you how good the simplest act of kindness can be," says Emmy-winning Mike & Molly and Gilmore Girls vet McCarthy, who also serves as an executive producer. Here, she and Perusich (also an actress) share what led to the sawdust-filled moments and powerful stories-ahead.
