Serial
Pępek świata
Bohaterem serialu jest przeciętna amerykańska rodzina, mieszkająca w fikcyjnym mieście Orson w stanie Indiana. Serial pokazuje codzienność Hecków i trójki ich dzieci. Niczego wielkiego w życiu nie osiągnęli, borykają się z różnymi problemami szarego człowieka: krnąbrne dzieci, kiepska sytuacja finansowa, niesatysfakcjonująca praca, bezrobocie, szalone ciotki, uciążliwi sąsiedzi... Wszystko wyolbrzymione do granic absurdu.
