FAMILY PLOTS (2004)
A Series Produced by Hybrid Films for A&E Television Networks

Season Two Airs Sunday Nights at 9 & 9:30 PM
On the A&E Television Network




Functional clashes with dysfunctional in this groundbreaking reality series that goes behind the scenes of one of Southern California's busiest independent funeral homes and into the personal lives of its unusual family of staff.

Meet the Wissmiller family - three beautiful sisters and their rough and tumble bighearted dad. The oldest Wissmiller sister is engaged to the boss, Rick Sadler, a workaholic and three-time divorcee. Each day is a challenge with numerous embalmings, funeral arrangements, grieving families and the theater of the funerals themselves. In this family business where death is a livelihood, every day is filled with pain, love and the life-affirming unique comedy of those whose job it is to deal with the dead and their families on a daily basis.
