An irreverent family drama series told from the perspective of three teens. Mitch and Mary Green live with their three high school-age kids, Meghan, Cameron and Kenny, and Mary's recently widowed mother Elizabeth. Breadwinner Mitch is always busy -- whether it's closing deals, overseeing the remodeling of the kitchen or confronting Cameron about his opposite-sex sleepovers. Mary is upset that she and Mitch aren't spending enough time together, and also saddened that valedictorian Meghan will soon be leaving for college, though Meghan hasn't decided if she's going to college right away. Freshman Kenny has problems avoiding the class bully and talking to girls. Only Grandma Elizabeth takes everything in stride.
