Premise:
The five Salinger siblings have to come together and survive when their parents are killed by a drunk driver.
Characters:
- Charlie, the eldest, has to finish growing up for the sake of his younger siblings.
- Julia is unsure of what she wants, whatever it is, it has to be something of which everyone else disapproves.
- Bailey is responsible and ready to do anything for his family or friends.
- Claudia is a young violin genius who yearns for more attention from her often self-absorbed older siblings.
- Kirsten is hired as a nanny to Owen, but sparks fly between her and Charlie.
- Sarah is Bailey's near-perfect girlfriend.
- Griffin Holbrook is a laid-back guy that Julia decides to latch onto.
Comments:
Interesting show that went beyond the usual teen angst. It peaked with Bailey's alcoholism arc. The Charlie cancer arc was disappointing to us in that he was constantly holding a pity party for himself while he was sick rather than portraying a positive patient. The show tapered off after that.
