DESCRIPTION:
(from ABC's press release, March 2014) It's 1976. After 19 years of marriage and 6 kids, Teddy and Cathleen's (Molly Shannon) lives are in a rut. But that was before a detour on their road trip brought them to the lakeside Bambi Cottages. Now, the Burkes are the proud owners of these 6 funky vacation cottages in New Hampshire. Overworked and dangerously optimistic Teddy believes that this is his chance for happiness and quits his big city job without telling Cathleen. But running a business with family is anything but a vacation. The 'staff' includes 7 year-old Phyllis who never speaks, 9 year-old Elliot who's gay but too young to know it, 12 year-old Wally who likes lighting matches a little too much, 14 year-old lazy Russell, 15 year-old Nathan who is way too agreeable, and 17 year-old Veronica, who's a pretty teenage girl with the personality of a cranky, middle aged woman. The opening day of BAMBI COTTAGES does not go well. The slick brochures have overpromised and the family will have to pull together to keep their guests from leaving in this comedy based on creator Brian Gallivan's real life. |
