What happens

Parenthood is an American family comedy-drama television series developed by Jason Katims and produced by Imagine Television and Universal Television for NBC. The show tales of the Braverman clan, consisting of a three generational family. Loosely based on the 1989 film of the same name, the series is the second adaptation of the film to air on television, preceded by the 1990–1991 TV series, which also aired on NBC. Following the release of Friday Night Lights, Katims approached Ron Howard and Brian Grazer with the idea of creating an updated, modern adaptation of the 1989 film and bringing it to television. The series ran for six seasons from March 2, 2010, to January 29, 2015. The series was well received by television critics and earned several nominations and awards, including one Vision Award, a Critics' Choice Television Award, two Television Academy Honors awards, four Young Artist Awards, and three Entertainment Industries Council PRISM Awards. Despite positive reviews, the series never gained a strong audience; the pilot received the highest audience figures, with ratings declining thereafter. The sixth and final season, consisting of 13 episodes, premiered on September 25, 2014. The series concluded on January 29, 2015. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
