Alex and the Enderson Brothers

Overview

The Enderson brothers dominate the social scene and bring excitement to the uneventful town of Plainville. Scott, Chris, Otto, and Ryan are well-known and well-liked—most of the time. Their loyalty to each other is indestructible until one brother drifts into the wrong crowd. Then there's Alex, the family's youngest child and only daughter, who struggles to rise above her family's reputation. While her brothers enjoy their teenage freedom, Alex deals with the frustrations of youth and is constantly reminded that someday she will become a mature woman, someday boys will like her, and someday she'll look back at her youth and laugh. After a revelation by the outcast brother, the family is divided. Their dad has to remind all the kids who's really in charge despite the devastating consequences. Will the Enderson family ever be the close-knit group they once were?
