Melissa Joan Hart and Joey Lawrence in last year's telemovie 'My Fake Fiance'.

Following their stints on in celebrity reality series ‘Dancing with the Stars’, Melissa Joan Hart (‘Sabrina the Teenage Witch’) and Joey Lawrence (‘Blossom’) will return to their sitcom roots in ABC Family’s aptly unimaginatively titled ‘Melissa and Joey’.

Hart will play a politician whose niece and nephew are left in her care when her sister is thrown in jail. Unable to juggle both work and parenthood, she hires a manny (Lawrence) to help care for them.

The half-hour sitcom was developed with the actors in mind, after their ABC Family original movie, ‘My Fake Fiance’, shattered ratings records for the cable channel early last year.

‘Melissa and Joey’ will premiere later this year on ABC Family.
