Family Biz is a Canadian television show, filmed in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada starring Doug Murray, Ephraim Ellis and Kate Corbett. [1]
An international co-production between Canada’s Muse Entertainment, Summit
Crescent Productions and France’s Breakout Films, Family Biz centers around three
latch key kids, Eli (16), Avalon (15) and Ronnie (11), who have the run of the Keller
house. Their corporate parents are too busy at work and teen insanity rules! That is
until their Dad, Dave Keller, gets downsized (okay...fired) and decides to work from
home in the Keller attic. To feel useful, Dave launches the Keller Family Corp. and sets
about “reinvolving” himself in the lives of his teenage kids, much to his offspring’s total
embarrassment. Whenever a problem occurs Dad looks to his years of business
knowledge to find the solution, whether it is getting to know his kids through in-depth
marketing surveys or outsourcing all their phone messages to India. But mostly he just
drives the Keller kids mad…too bad the kids can’t just fire Dad!

Dad's in the house. And that means big changes for the Keller kids.
Ronnie gets an actual bedtime. Avalon loses her cell phone and
unlimited calling privileges. And no more killer Keller-Casa parties.
Desperate to save her plummeting social stock, Avalon maneuvers Eli into
booking the EMO band Yellow Stayne to play a concert Chez Keller. This
will be the house party to end all house parties. And Eli will get to
hook up with the super hot Tracey Dupont-Roymont. Now all Eli has to do
now is keep Dad out of the house. Just for six hours. How hard can that
be?
