《羅家七口》全新一季更令人揪心也更叫人發噱,甚至帶著一抹淡淡的憂傷。更多如坐針氈的率真直言,一貫劇中珍妮老媽子風格,一窺歷經家庭風波後的羅家七口,即使關係總有如牢籠之際,羅家七口的故事依然熟悉如常且總縈繞於心。在難忘的暑假後,面對老媽珍妮和老爸丹尼平和且睿智的分開,老二班傑明終於懂得父母間的關係,有時拉開距離才行得通。
第二季中的新職涯和新戀情,讓班傑明和羅家人們充滿了興奮與期待。長子丹尼的亞洲雜貨店開張大吉,開啟了他的零售業入行初體驗,於此同時,珍妮也開始了自我探求的旅程。班傑明重新反思自己作為羅家穩定關係的要角,除了得幫忙老媽珍妮「找自己」、還必須協助老爸自我實現,竭盡所能不讓羅家逸出常軌;然而,這一切都發生在班傑明忙於聖心高中前衛創新的公演劇作之際-有弒嬰情節的希臘三大悲劇之一《米蒂亞》。
This new season of The Family Law will be even more painful, hilarious and poignant than the first. With more gasp-inducing honesty and hair-raising mommy Jenny-isms, meet the now post-nuclear family you know and love, where membership sometimes feels like a (jail) sentence. Sounds familiar?
After The Family Law summer to remember, parents Jenny and Danny have amicably parted ways and a wiser, more-mature Benjamin (the middle child) now understands that sometimes, parents just work better apart. Simple, right? Yeah… no.
In Season 2, Benjamin and the rest of the Laws are excited to explore fresh careers, fresh ambitions and even fresh romances. Elder son Danny opens an Asian grocery store – his first entrée into retail – while Jenny embarks on a quest of self-discovery. Resuming his role as family fixer, Benjamin helps his mother ‘find herself’, supports his father’s efforts to prove himself and tries to stop his family from going off the rails – all while juggling his turn in Sacred Heart High’s ground-breaking school production of a feel-good hit about infanticide, Medea.
