[edit] Summary

Spanning three generations, the Grombergs are a highly successful, but somewhat dysfunctional New York family. Patriarch Mitchell Gromberg is having difficulty coming to grips with his mortality. His son, Alex, has spent his life trying to not become his father; while Alex's son, Asher, tries to find himself as he parties away his college years. The tale revolves around Alex who is caught in the middle of this changing family. Trying to avoid the mistakes his father made, while coming to terms with the ones he's already passed on to his own sons, Alex is navigating his way through the tricky roles he plays as father, son and husband.
