Synopsis
Set in the cutthroat and neck-lifted world of private school parenting in Los Angeles, Moms Like Us is a comedic cautionary tale about how far mothers will go to protect their children, and their secrets.
That someone might end up dead at the Palms School’s annual glamping trip in Santa Barbara wasn’t far-fetched. Taking city people into the woods was begging for murder. What was surprising was how far these mothers would go to cover it up.
Meet our moms: Milly craves recognition from her mommunity for devoting herself to the school; Jillian is terrified that her daughter won’t get into their preferred private middle school, or any school; Dawn just returned to LA after being banished with her canceled husband and their son, and wants her old life back; and Heather, who secretly engineered Dawn’s husband’s fall from grace, is shocked that they have returned and, worse, are up for membership at her private tennis club. Over her dead body.
In the ferocious, manicured world of the wealthy and well intentioned, how long can secrets stay hidden, and how far will these women go to protect their children, their reputations, and their darkest desires?
