‘April’s grandparents come to visit, and April gets a chemo makeover in an all-new, special holiday episode of “Chasing Life” airing during ABC Family’s “25 Days of Christmas,” Tuesday, December 9th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.
“In the episode titled “Locks of Love,” April’s grandparents (guest stars Ed Asner and Marion Ross) stir up trouble when they pay a visit and the Carvers celebrate an early family Christmas:”
“The full contents of Leo’s cryptic voicemail are revealed, leading April and Leo to rethink their last goodbye. In an attempt to help her friend cope with the effects of chemo, Beth helps April with a makeover, or two. The episode was written by Executive Producers Susanna Fogel and Joni Lefkowitz and directed by Lee Rose.”
I asked Italia how it was to work with two iconic actors, and also how it was to have a different grandparent dynamic. Her mom’s mom is always around, but not the dad’s parents. In real life that dynamic can be awkward, here is what Italia had to say about the handling of it in the episode!
Here are the social media links for my favorite show! I follow them all, I love Italia!
