When two grown, liberal kids return home to live with their opinionated, conservative father,
the whole family will have to face one heck of a generation gap. A modern day All In The Family,
Southern Discomfort invites you to sit back, relax and slip into something a little uncomfortable -
like someone else's family.
Bob Dobson wants to be a supportive dad, but his kids don't make it easy. Bob and his wife Mary Lou
were looking forward to their golden retirement years together.
They'd already bought Rudy, their trophy dog. First, their son Ty came home to pursue his dream of
becoming a writer. And now, their perfect Harvard-educated daughter has decided to turn down her dream
job in New York to move back home and be with her high school sweetheart.
Bob just doesn't get it. He's given his kids every advantage, so why can't they make something out
of their lives? Like becoming the people he always dreamed they would be? As Bob's wife gently reminds
him, part of growing up means allowing kids to make their own decisions. Bob's trying to accept that,
but that doesn't mean he has to like it.
