The Detour

The Detour is a what-in-the-living-hell-is-wrong-with-this-family comedy created by comic super-couple Jason Jones and Samantha Bee and inspired by their own experiences with family trips.

Jones stars as unfiltered dad Nate, who hits the road with wife Robin (Natalie Zea) and kids Delilah and Jared. Every leg of their trip is fraught with disaster as they encounter one hellish turn after another.

The trip sees several dramatic delays such as car trouble, run-ins with law enforcement, unforeseen medical mishaps and intervening locals.

Then it's revealed that Nate caused some professional trouble before leaving Syracuse and his ulterior motives for the Florida trip, fuelling flashbacks and a framing device involving several law-enforcement agencies and an interrogation into his unspecified crimes.

If there's trouble on the road, this family will find it and plow into it.
