This Flemish sitcom is entirely about the entirely wacky lower-class family Backeljau, which always speaks the most common Antwerp dialect. It consists of father François 'Cois' Backeljau, his wife Maria, the rather cunning Bomma ('granny' Thérèse, his mother), the even older pet (in dog years) Blacky, their son Franky and his wife Janine, daughter Sabrina and her husband Antonio and little nephew Lionel, the youngest but more intelligent then all his dumb relatives together and various lovers, friends and regular guests, such as the mailman and the policeman.
Çois Backeljau has discovered his true talent. He got a role in 'Art after the Metsen', the amateur theater group of his company. He already feels like an artist. He boldly studies his texts and for once he forgets the world around him. Thérèse also does some art and strums on an electric guitar, much to the dismay of Maria. Sabrina tries to prepare herself for her theoretical driving test in the midst of these artistic fads. Although they have their hands full with the tombola, the whole family supports Çois on the evening of the performance.
