The McCarthys
该剧改编自制片人自己的生活经历,是一部类似《摩登家庭》的大型家庭喜剧。这个家庭的成员是信奉天主教的爱尔兰人,住在波士顿,全家人都热爱体育。故事的核心是该家庭中的同性恋儿子Ronny——家人并不反对他的性取向,但反对他“不愿意多花时间陪伴家人”的做法。Ronny的父亲Arthur是一个政治立场不正确且口直心快的倔老头,Marjorie是一位性格和蔼可亲的老妇人,但是她说话很直率,从不遮遮掩掩。这就是麦卡锡一家,一个永远在争吵但永远相互关爱的家庭。

When Ronny considers moving away from his close-knit, sports-crazed family, his father surprises everyone when he offers him a job as his assistant basketball coach.

Ronny encourages his family to share their feelings after meeting his boyfriend's affectionate family. Ronny decides to make a video for Arthur and Marjorie's anniversary.

Gerard and Sean battle it out after they both apply for coaching jobs. A jealous Marjorie believes that Ronny has a boyfriend.

The family tries to support Jackie when her doctor give her a list of things she cannot do while pregnant.

On Thanksgiving, the McCarthys work together to manipulate Gerard into parting ways with his offensive girlfriend.

After learning that Jackie's ex-boyfriend is gay, Marjorie tries to set him up with Ronny. Sean's gift to Gerard disappoints everyone but Marjorie.

When Marjorie learns she needs to spend the night in the hospital, she fixes Arthur a care package with instructions on how to perform basic life skills.

Marjorie invites her heartbroken upstairs tenant, Pam, to celebrate Christmas with the family--and observe their competitive gift exchange game.

When Marjorie's extremely competitive sister, Eileen, comes to visit, their rivalry gets the best of them.

Marjorie tries to make Gerard think he was inducted into the high school hall of fame; Ronny and Arthur write a speech.

Ronny starts dating Doug -- an attractive referee who has a history of making Arthur furious; Gerard's suspicious behavior makes Katrina worry he is cheating.

Gerard misses his own engagement party when he gets on the wrong Boston Harbor cruise ship, so Marjorie is forced to bond with her soon-to-be daughter-in-law. Meanwhile, Sean hits it off with Katrina's mother and Arthur judges Jackie for how her baby was conceived.
When the McCarthys realize they have become extremely dependent on one another, they make a family bet to see who can be independent the longest. Meanwhile, Jackie hides her pregnancy while on a date.
When the family finds out that Ronny sees a therapist, they crash his appointment and wind up in an impromptu family session where they air their grievances about one another.
The McCarthy children are sent into a frenzy when they each try to prove they are responsible enough to be appointed executor of their parents' will.
