ALMOST FAMILY is a story about a family that’s formed through extreme odds. Only child Julia Bechley is shocked to learn that her father, Leon Bechley (a fertility doctor) used his own sperm to conceive upwards of 100 children. This explosive revelation leads Julia to discover two sisters — her former best friend, Edie Palmer, and an ex-Olympic althlete, Roxy Doyle. Fox hints that “as these three young women begin to embrace their new reality, Julia must figure out what life is like without Leon by her side; Edie comes to grips with her burgeoning sexuality, as her marriage falters; and Roxy faces adulthood out of the spotlight. Against all odds, the three women will attempt to form an untraditional bond as sisters, even as they must welcome a tidal wave of new siblings into their rapidly expanding family.”
