Synopsis

Tara Gregson (Toni Collette) is a wife and mother with dissociative identity disorder (DID). After deciding to take a break from her medication to discover the real cause of her disorder, her alternate personalties re–emerge: wild and flirty teenager T; old–fashioned housewife Alice; and male, loud, beer–drinking Vietnam vet Buck. Tara is supported by her calm and level–headed husband Max (John Corbett), her somewhat troubled teenage daughter Kate (Brie Larson), and quirky, good–hearted gay son Marshall (Keir Gilchrist). Her sister, Charmaine (Rosemarie DeWitt), is not so supportive, often expressing her doubt about the validity of Tara's disorder. The show is set in Overland Park, Kansas.
