Set in Atlanta, the series centers on the Meadows family: Grandma Bell, the strong-willed matriarch; Uncle Bo, a charismatic hustler; Auntie Gator, a crack addict, compulsive liar and thief; and Dunk, the young boy caught in the middle. As the heart of the series, Dunk navigates the chaos of his family's dysfunctional lifestyle while coming of age in an environment shaped by survival, resilience, and humor.

Dunk's experiences and his uncle's antics drive the primary storylines, while supporting plots highlight the lives and dynamics of extended family and community members, including Auntie Gator's friend Twitch, Dunk's nosy teacher, his God-fearing Nana Grace and Paw Paw Otis, and his absentee father.
