Almost Home - All Seasons
Season 1
The Torkelsons
Millicent Torkelson does what she can to hold her family together as it shrinks to just her and her five children, between the ages of fourteen and six, after her husband Randy abandons the family. Randy eventually returns for a short time, but the couple end up divorcing. Millicent perpetually struggles as the sole financial provider, getting so far in debt that even her home appliances get repossessed. In dire need of income and another adult in the household, Millicent rents out the basement to Wesley "Boarder" Hodges who quickly finds himself part of the family.

Season 2
Almost Home
The second season of The Torkelsons was produced only after a complete retooling of the cast and story, opening with the family relocating to Seattle after Millicent accepts a job as a nanny, their family home in Oklahoma having been foreclosed. Billing itself under the title 'Almost Home', the show moves forward as though two children from the first season, Steven Floyd and Ruth Ann, never existed. Millicent now refers to Chuckie Lee as her only son and Chuckie Lee refers to himself as the "middle child." Millicent and the remaining three children move in with Brian Morgan and his two kids, Gregory and Molly.
