Written by Romano and Mark Stegemann (Scrubs, Raising Hope, Preacher), the pic follows Leo (Romano) and Angela Russo (Metcalf), living a simple, blue-collar life in Queens, surrounded by the big personalities of their overbearing Italian-American family.

When their lanky, soft-spoken son, ‘Sticks’ (played by Ward), finds success on his high school basketball team and a chance at a life beyond what tradition expects, Leo tears the family apart, trying to make it happen.
