7:30-8pm -- Family Plots - Blood Is Thicker Than
Water
Welcome to Poway Bernardo Mortuary, where a
real-life death experience awaits you. In our
reality series chronicling the intense, peculiar,
and often hilarious days and nights at a busy
California funeral home, we meet three beautiful
sisters, their hot-blooded father, exacting boss,
and quirky funeral director. The first episode
finds head embalmer Shonna with only 30 minutes
to get a body into its casket and to the funeral.
After one last embalming, the three sisters head
for a girls' night out.

9-9:30pm -- Family Plots - Where's Chuck?
Body remover and ex-boxing champ Chuck Wissmiller
drives everybody at the mortuary nuts. First, he
causes chaos when he's late picking up two bodies
at the medical examiner's office. Then, he fouls
up when he fails to realize that his daughter
Shonna is waiting for him to bring the van back
so they can send a body to the airport. Finally,
he delivers an elderly woman's body to the
mortuary two hours late, making Rick livid. After
a long day, he heads home where his beloved cat
awaits him, too.
9:30-10pm -- Family Plots - Love and Death
Poway-Bernardo Mortuary boss Rick rules with a
firm hand and a gruff voice. But it doesn't help
that he and fiancee Melissa, the oldest
Wissmiller sister, don't see eye to eye.
Meanwhile, embalmer Shonna is forced to deal with
one client while she hurries to prepare a loved
one in time for the evening's family viewing.
Then, a kinder, gentler Rick helps a volunteer
group bury an abandoned baby. Rick recently lost
his son after years of illness, and now "love" is
"all that matters."
