Inspired by the life of comedian Jerrod Carmichael, the show follows Jerrod and his opinionated North Carolina family as they navigate topics that all families face today in America. And nothing is too uncomfortable to explore – police protests, guns, religion. Jerrod often finds himself debating such issues with his old school father Joe, his devoutly religious mother Cynthia, his progressive live-in girlfriend Maxine, his recently separated brother Bobby,and Bobby’s estranged and outspoken wife Nekeisha. And somewhere in the middle of all of their disagreeing is the heart of this family.
