reception
The conservative association One Million Moms criticized the series because it contained content that was harmful to children. In a statement it says: “These things harm our society and the show harms our culture. […] Millions of Americans firmly believe that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. NBC's The New Normal is trying to desensitize America and our children. It is the opposite of what families were intended and created for. You cannot reinvent the biological cycle ”. NBC's partner station in the US state of Utah , KSL-TV, refused to air the series because it contradicted its brand image.
