From the moment father Bud Turpin keels over at the breakfast table right on through his burial in the "Gentleman Farmer" coffin, the show makes it clear that there’s more to living and dying in the Bible Belt than you can shake a corn dog at. Set somewhere south of the Mason Dixon line, we are told the story of father Turpin’s funeral and its aftermath, not to mention the dizzying array of crazies who are attached to him. Dearly Departed is the zaniest show you will ever see.
