Meet the Newmans

You've seen the show. Now meet the woman behind the scenes... Los Angeles, 1964. For two decades, Del and Dinah Newman and their sons, Guy and Shep, have ruled television as 'America's Favourite Family'. Millions of viewers tune in every week to watch them play flawless, black-and-white versions of themselves. But the sixties are in full swing now and the Newmans' perfection suddenly feels woefully out of touch.
Ratings are in free fall, as are the Newmans themselves. Del is keeping an explosive secret from his wife ; Dinah is slowly going numb ; steady, stable Guy is hiding the truth about his love life ; while rock 'n' roll idol Shep may finally be in real trouble. When Del gets into a mysterious car accident, Dinah decides to take matters into her own hands. She hires Juliet Dunne, an outspoken young reporter, to help her write the family's final episode.
But Dinah and Juliet have wildly different perspectives about what it means to be a woman in 1964 America. Can Dinah Newman bring her family together to change television history ? Or will she be cancelled before she even has the chance ? Maybe it's time for perfection to fall out of style...
