The Neighbors Alt title: There goes the Neighborhood

By Lewis Marklin Mash

 

Genre: Comedy Film or Sitcom

 

When the trailer park’s most despised family, the Tarts, hit the lottery jackpot they burn down their mobile home trailer, much to the park communities delight and spring for a spread in suburbia among the white collar populous who have no idea what they are in for.

Billy, Bobby, Barbara, Babette, Josie, Mammy and Pappy Tart are just a hop and a skip away from the good life. Bobby bought a construction crane that he parked on the back yard grass just because he could, while Billy bought ATV’s and other loud toys that invade silence and tear up a manicured lawn with purpose. Barbara’s a floosy who the neighbor wives will learn to despise and Babette is the type to mow the lawn 3 times a day just to ride a mower. Josie is the sane voice of reason in the house and the mediator. Mammy and Pappy aren’t about to touch that damn computer and don’t want their face on no book no how.

It’s a healthy cross between Married with Children, Beverly Hillbillies and Down and Out in Beverly Hills, melding regular old wealthy folks to a crew of unorthodox crazies who seem out of place and without purpose. Throughout the journey the Tarts begin to grow on us and we see that through it all they possess a remarkable wisdom and care for the simpler things of humanity and nature and help many of their privileged neighbors to make light of their problems before all is said and done. Oh, but one hell of a ride that gets us there.
