Tig Notaro along with her co-EP on this project Cara DiPaolo are aiming for a dramedy exploring the American experience centered on the center of the U.S. 

From the premise of meeting half-siblings for the first time at a funeral, Thicker Than Water almost seems like a natural progression from Tig’s last show One Mississippi. 

Right now, it has a commitment for a pilot at ABC, but if it goes to series, maybe it could end up being ABC’s answer to This Is Us (in dramedy form).
