A warm, energetic family comedy about the chaos and love of raising a large brood, built on sibling dynamics and parental devotion despite life's disruptions.
The Baker brood moves to Chicago after patriarch Tom gets a job coaching football at Northwestern University, forcing his writer wife, Kate, and the couple's 12 children to make a major adjustment. The transition works well until work demands pull the parents away from home, leaving the kids bored -- and increasingly mischievous.
