The Right Side: Comedy, Chaos, and Family Feuds in the Political Spotlight

Synopsis

A comedy about politics as content, family as collateral damage, and the impossible task of loving people you fundamentally disagree with. It begins after a live, on-air announcement turns a terminal illness into a national spectacle. America’s most beloved conservative TV couple’s carefully curated public persona collides with their very real family when their liberal, podcast-famous kids return home for a network tribute special. Notably, the same kids host a show dedicated to tearing down everything their parents stand for. MacDowell plays Ruthie, a right-wing news celebrity and co-host of a morning show whose public-facing marriage — and private life as a mother of twins — is tested as the family is forced into the spotlight.
