The Baskets family is at its most fragile. After losing his wife and rodeo job, Chip jumps on a train to get out of Bakersfield, but a gang of gutter punks, the police and an unexpected tragedy drag him back into the drama he tried to escape.
Season 3
Nothing brings a family together like a family business—or at least that was the plan. Welcome to the Baskets Family Rodeo, where Christine is the President and CEO despite never having seen a rodeo before. Chip has his first full-time gig since Arby’s, but can barely transfer a phone call, let alone recruit much-needed clowns. And even though Dale is the only one in the family who has run a business, he can’t get anyone to listen to him—his family, the employees, or the horses.
