    2018

    Nothing brings a family together like a family business—or at least that was the plan. Welcome to the Baskets Family Rodeo, where Christine is the President and CEO despite never having seen a rodeo before. Chip has his first full-time gig since Arby’s, but can barely transfer a phone call, let alone recruit much-needed clowns. And even though Dale is the only one in the family who has run a business, he can’t get anyone to listen to him—his family, the employees, or the horses.

    2019

    After 49 years, Chip decides it’s finally time to move out of his mom’s place. But even with the help of Martha and a life coach, he learns that leaving the nest is hard, to say the least. Christine and Ken move into a new place they can call their own, but carpet emergencies and missing kitchen magnets make the transition rockier than expected. And Dale has found kindred spirits with his fellow inhabitants at the RV park.
