Filmed before a studio audience, "Just Roll With It" blends improvisational comedy with a scripted family sitcom that allows the studio audience the opportunity to select the direction of key scenes.

Blair, often a rebel without a cause, is the polar opposite of her very regimented but loving mom Rachel, who is a decorated military veteran and station manager for BEATZ 101. Owen, a model student who thrives when following rules and detailed schedules, tries to manage his creative and charismatic father Byron, an on-air radio personality on BEATZ 101. Through it all, the Bennett-Blatts, and the actors who play them, take whatever life-and the studio audience-throws at them – and they "Just Roll With It."
