Get Real follows the misadventures of the Green family. The series was critically acclaimed and received a number of award nominations including a "Best Drama" Teen Choice Award Nomination. In spite of all this acclaim, Fox canceled the series and did not show all of the episodes.

The parents are in midlife crisis phase, and alternate between fighting and dreaming they are married to someone else. The three teenage kids have troubles of their own. One boy gets beat up a lot, another is a hoodlum and the super-gorgeous daughter is cursed with a 4.0 grade average.
