Synopsis

Even when nothing is going according to plan, Amber Brown is always bold, bright, and colorful. #Amber Brown is out now on Apple TV+

Amber's parents just aren't acting the way she thinks parents should. Sometimes her dad goes out on dates when he is supposed to be spending time with her. And her Mom went to Disneyland with Aunt Pam while Amber was with her dad (not fair!).

Then Mom and Max decide to get married even sooner and move to a new house—maybe even a new town.

Some kids seem to have no problems . . . and that makes Amber Brown green with envy.
