Bu tuhaf ve darmadağınık suç hikayesinde Luciano, çoktan kaybettiğini düşündüğü oğlunu bulur ve ona mafya işlerinin inceliklerini öğretmeye çalışır. Ancak, bu sırada onu devirip patron olmanın hayalini kuran beceriksiz sağ kolu, Luciano'yu ortadan kaldırmak için bir kiralık katil tutmuştur. Kaçış, ailevi keşifler ve sürekli tehdit altında geçen komik bir kaos başlar.

At the height of the October Revolution during the 1919 allied intervention in Arkhangelsk, the exploits of one-legged Canadian soldier Lt. John Boles are told, after he is taken in from the cold by a dysfunctional Russian family and mistakes a local woman for his presumed dead lover.

A reclusive seeker-of-immortality scientifically keeps his body youthful, but is not able to control the devastating effects of aging on his mind. He wanders about his creaky estate; quoting scripture, taking mind-altering drugs, engaging in bizarre rituals and vaguely interacting with his dysfunctional family...until, of course, the inevitable blood-soaked climax.

An impressionistic series of images inspired by "Tales From the Gimli Hospital".

There’s a place where kids are kids, and the problems don’t have easy answers. A place where people lead real lives. A place called Northwood. Northwood follows the lives and loves of the teenagers who hang out in this middle class, ethnically diverse metropolitan suburb. Premiering in March 1991, and originally slated to air as a limited-run six-part series, high ratings for these six episodes garnered a full-series order, with the second season premiering in September of that same year. The series was created and produced by Nick Orchard.
