Now the Buccaneers are no longer the invaders - England is their home. In fact they're practically running the place. Nan is the Duchess of Tintagel, the most influential woman in the country. Conchita is Lady Brightlingsea, heroine to a wave of young American heiresses. And Jinny is on every front-page, wanted for the kidnap of her unborn child. All of the girls have been forced to grow up and now have to fight to be heard, as they wrestle with romance, lust, jealousy, births and deaths... themes consuming all women of any age, no matter what year it is. Last time we got a taste of England. This time we're in for a veritable feast. (as per Apple TV+)

20+ Age-Defying Parent-Child Castings From Blue Bloods, ER, Ginny & Georgia, Golden Girls, Supernatural and More
As TV fans, we're no strangers to suspending our disbelief when it comes to embracing fantastical or implausible storylines from our favorite shows. But sometimes, it can be an equally enjoyable exercise to fall down a rabbit hole of reason. And that's what we're doing here today, embarking on a journey to answer the age-old question: Could this actor be their co-star's parent in real life? More from TVLine Every New Scripted Show Confirmed to Premiere in 2025 - Save the Dates! The Buccaneers Season 2 Premiere: Leighton Meester Makes Dramatic Entrance as [Spoiler]'s Mother Does Jensen Ackles' Countdown Hero Have BDE - Big Dean (Winchester) Energy? 'There Are Familiar Aspects,' Says Supernatural Vet The list below rounds up the 20 weirdest, wackiest, most bizarre parent-child castings due to unbelievable age gaps. So if you, too, just watched the Season 2 premiere of Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers and thought, 'Leighton Meester is playing mom to a 19-year-old woman?!,' you're in the right place. Our list has it all, from a Family Ties father who had only 14 years on his on-screen son, to a Golden Girl who defied all logic by actually being younger than her daughter. We've also got age-defying pairings from Six Feet Under, Supernatural, The Good Place, Blue Bloods, Orange Is the New Black, Schitt's Creek, The Cosby Show, George Lopez and more. But before you get scrolling, some housekeeping: Our round-up is sorted from widest to smallest age gap, and we're sharing how old the actors were at the time they first appeared alongside each other — not how old they are today. Also, we've steered clear of soap operas and timey-wimey time travel shows. (We are in a rabbit hole of reason, remember?!) Without further ado, it's time for you, dear reader, to fly the coop and review our sampling of TV's most bizarre parent-child castings — and as always, feel free to nominate others that come to mind!

Leighton Meester and Adam Brody are amidst a career renaissance Meester has joined The Buccaneers season 2 while Brody led the 2024 hit Nobody Wants This The Gossip Girl alum tells PEOPLE, "It's an embarrassment of riches"If there's one couple in Hollywood that everyone is currently enamored with, it's Adam Brody and Leighton Meester. The two longtime TV stars have been at the center of renewed excitement — a renaissance, if you will — especially over the past year with Brody, 45, starring in the buzzy series Nobody Wants This, which recently wrapped production on season 2 in May. Meester, 39, meanwhile, most recently starred in Good Cop/Bad Cop before joining The Buccaneers, which returns for season 2 on Wednesday, June 18. While promoting the Apple TV+ period drama, Meester tells PEOPLE, "It's an embarrassment of riches. It's just really good," before quipping, "That's not so eloquent, but yeah, it's good." She explains, "It's nice to be working and it's nice for people to see the work you do. Obviously, that's kind of the hope. But so much of the time you do the work and then no one sees it." In this particular case, however, "everyone also loves what you guys are doing, so it's really very exciting." In October 2024, less than a month after Nobody Wants This became a certified hit on Netflix, Brody's former O.C. costar, Rachel Bilson, told PEOPLE that the "Adam Brody renaissance" was "well deserved." She added, "I mean, he is awesome. He's the best." Even Brody himself admitted that he was aware of the attention, telling The Hollywood Reporter following the show's success that "I've gotten a lot of interesting stuff. My email is fuller than it was." While speaking with PEOPLE the actor acknowledged that the reception to the show was a welcomed one. "I knew that we had something that worked, but I had no idea the sort of wide swath of people that would enjoy it. That has been an absolute pleasant surprise,' he said in November. "I've been doing this a long time, and it doesn't happen often, whoever you are. So it's very gratifying and exciting." Creator Erin Foster hyped up her new character, telling PEOPLE in April that the Gossip Girl alum is "a comedic genius." Foster added, "She's so funny. She blew our minds. We were like, 'Do, like, we write more of her in?' " Not to be left out, Brody also had high praise for his wife. "I'm always impressed, and I'm always so proud," he recently said of seeing Meester in her element while filming season 2.

And I thought it was clever casting on their part, knowing that the audience was going to get very excited about." On the series, Meester plays Nell, whose arrival to England upends the lives of Nan (Kristine Frøseth) and Patti St. George (Hendricks).

‘We Were Liars,' Plus 7 Things to Watch on TV This Week
Between streaming and cable, there is a seemingly endless variety of things to watch. Here is a selection of TV shows and specials that are airing or streaming this week, June 16-22. Details and times are subject to change. Managing familial expectations. In 2014 E. Lockhart released her young adult psychological horror novel 'We Were Liars.' Nearly a decade later the book, after making its rounds on #BookTok, is now coming to small screens as a series with the same name. It follows Cadence Sinclair (Emily Alyn Lind), who returns to her family's summer home in Beechwood, a fictional island off Martha's Vineyard, two years after a mysterious incident that left her with amnesia. Three generations of the old-money Sinclair family gather, along with some of Cadence's childhood friends, and it seems that everyone is keeping some type of secret. Streaming Wednesday on Prime Video. Based on Edith Wharton's posthumously released and incomplete novel, 'The Buccaneers' is back for its second installment. The first season focused on five young women, part of the upper echelon of 1870s high society, who were trying to find their purpose. These new episodes, which feature Leighton Meester in a guest role, will be a little bit more serious, with a focus on motherhood, abusive husbands and will-they-won't-they relationship arcs. Streaming Wednesday on Apple TV+. If you miss the comfy and cozy atmosphere of 'Dawson's Creek,' you are in luck because the creator Kevin Williamson is back with a new show, 'The Waterfront,' which actually takes place in North Carolina ('Dawson's Creek,' though filmed there, was set in Massachusetts). The series follows the Buckley family, who once ruled the town with their fishing and restaurant businesses but are now struggling to keep things afloat after the patriarch (Holt McCallany) had two heart attacks. Streaming Thursday on Netflix. Every so often my hometown, Troy, N.Y., gets transformed into 1880s moneyed Manhattan with temporary regal facades on every building, gravel on the roads, countless horses milling about — oh, and with the principal cast members of 'The Gilded Age' taking up residence to film a new season. This week the third one, which will feature lots of twist and turns, according to one of its stars, Louisa Jacobson, comes to small screens. And, of course, the usual promises of betrothal, household chaos and marriages of opportunity will continue. Sunday at 9 p.m. on HBO and streaming on Max. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
