In this outrageous fish-out-of-water comedy, Josh Segal (Nicholas D'Agosto), a bright-eyed New York lawyer, heads to a tiny Southern town for his first big case. His mission? To defend an eccentric "rollercizing" poetry professor (John Lithgow) accused of the bizarre murder of his beloved wife. Settling into his makeshift office behind a taxidermy shop and meeting his quirky team of local misfits, Josh suspects that winning his first big case will not be easy - especially when his client is always making himself look guilty.
