MEL'S DAD CHARMS THE PANTS OFF OF JOE'S MOM ON AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF ABC FAMILY'S "MELISSA & JOEY," WEDNESDAY, JULY 1ST AT 8PM ET/PT

Christopher Rich, Faith Prinz and Sterling Knight Guest Star

Burbank, CA (June 11, 2015) - Mel invites her father over to talk to Joe's mom but is horrified when the two wind up "together" on an all-new episode of "Melissa & Joey," airing Wednesday, July 1st (8:00PM ET/PT) on ABC Family.

Mel tries to convince Joe to talk Gloria (guest star Faith Prinz) into drawing up a will, but Joe chickens out. So Mel invites Russell (guest star Christopher Rich) to come talk to her. Gloria is offended, but Russell soon charms her - a little too well for Mel's liking.

Meanwhile, Lennox and Zander try to just be "friends with benefits."

"Melissa & Joey" stars Melissa Joan Hart, Joey Lawrence, Taylor Spreitler and Nick Robinson, and is executive-produced by Bob Young & David Kendall, Paula Hart, Melissa Joan Hart and Joey Lawrence.
