It could have been worse

A family sitcom about what life looks like when you get six children with five different mothers. Trond is a yes-man and is always trying to make everybody happy. But the result is that his own life gets very complicated. In this first season he arranges halloween, goes on a date pretending he haven’t got any kids, tries to give a genuin speech at his distant fathers birthday, helps his ex-girlfriend when she breaks up with a new boyfriend, and tries to spy on his teenage daughter when she's going to her first youth party. And it never ends well.

Life in Pieces

Comedy about one big happy family and their sometimes awkward, often hilarious and ultimately beautiful milestone moments as told by its various members. Of the three siblings, middle child Matt may have just found his true love, his co-worker, Colleen; his coddled youngest brother, Greg, and his wife, Jen, are overwhelmed by the birth of their first child; and the eldest, Heather, and her husband, Tim, are dreading their impending empty nest so much, they're considering having another baby. Their parents are Joan the family's adoring matriarch who would do anything for her kids - as long as she agrees with it - and John, the gregarious patriarch who's searching for ways to soften the blow of turning 70. As the family's lives unfold in four short stories each week, they try to savor these little pieces of time that flash by but stay with you forever, because these moments add up to what life's all about.
