The title is an understatement. This partly improvised sitcom focuses on 16 members of an extended Cincinnati, Ohio, clan: siblings, step-siblings, grandparents, married parents and single parents. The family is set abuzz in the pilot when Stepgrandpa Wendal (Max Gail) announces that he's leaving Grandma Colleen (Dee Wallace)—and then doesn't. The material is typical family-comedy stuff—money rights, bedroom troubles, sibling rivalries—but the show's conversational improv rhythms and realistic, documentary style make Sons and Daughters worth adopting.
