THE MILLERS revolves around Nathan Miller, a divorced local roving news reporter looking forward to living the single life until his parents’ marital problems unexpectedly derail his plans. Carol and Tom, separated and planning a divorce after 43 years of marriage, shock their adult children when they each move back in with one of them. Meddlesome Carol moves in with Nathan and sticks her nose in all his affairs, often the most embarrassing third wheel ever to Nathan and Ray, his best friend and cameraman. Absent-minded Tom imposes on Nathan’s sister, Debbie, her husband, Adam, and their daughter, Mikayla, where he accidentally – and regularly – destroys things within the house. Nathan and Debbie quickly realize that to get their parents out of their respective homes, they have to teach them some independence. Soon, with a lot of handholding and a lot more calamity, both parents are discovering the merits to going life solo.
