Raising Hope

2010–2014 · 4 seasons

A goofy, good-natured sitcom that finds warmth in a chaotic, loving family and turns white-trash chaos into gentle laughs.

Overview: James "Jimmy" Chance is a clueless 24-year-old who impregnates a serial killer during a one-night-stand. Earning custody of his daughter after the mother is sentenced to death, Jimmy relies on his oddball but well-intentioned family for support in raising the child.
How it feels: Whimsical, warm, absurd and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Family, parenthood, found family, class
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
