WARNER HOME VIDEO Animal Kingdom: Season 1 - Blu-ray

When his mother dies of a drug overdose, 17-year-old Joshua 'J' Cody moves in with his dissolute family living in Southern California. J's grandmother, the manipulative Janine 'Smurf' Cody, rules as a veritable iron lady over a dynasty of petty criminals. The work is taken care of by her four sons: her adopted son and right-hand man Baz, the dangerous and quite messed-up Pope, the hyperactive Craig and the worrywart Deran. As J tries to come to terms with the loss of his mother, an aggressive rivalry war breaks out between his uncles and a concerned teacher, causing a lot of danger, tension and trouble for J. Emmy®-winner Ellen Barkin heads a talented cast and stars in all ten episodes of this titillating, violent series based on the award-winning Australian film of the same name.
