A dual coming-of-age story, this limited series chronicles the personal and sexual journeys of an empty-nest mother and her college freshman son, who both embrace their newfound freedom with mixed results.
Eve Fletcher, a mid-40s single working mom, drops her only child off at college and returns home to a very empty house. Eve's son Brendan, a popular (sometimes clueless) jock, finds college is a little more complicated than he expected and struggles to make connections.
