The series tells a dramatic story based on the Australian series 'Sisters' for 2017. It is the story of the only child, who suffers from a tragedy because of her father. She reveals that her famous father used his sperm to conceive 100 children. Things turn completely when the girl also discovers that among the children there are two new sisters.
Easily the most promising series of the fall broadcast season: funny, poignant, and drenched in the chemistry between three charismatic actresses playing women who suddenly learn they're sisters.
So "Almost Family" made Hutton's Bechley an almost-loveable rogue, and his offspring almost-unbothered by the almost crime he perpetrated against them and countless others. No "almost" about that. It's flat-out creepy.
Almost Family doesn't really want to deal with female anger, or the revolting nature of its own premise. Instead, it aims to spin stories about community and family that are just so darn heartwarming, we'll forget they're all based on a fertility felony.
Standout performances and what looks to be a sure-fire, durable premise give Fox's Almost Family the key ingredients of a potentially long-running, soapy serial drama.
