Premise

The series centers on 17-year-old Joshua "J" Cody who, after the death of his mother, moves in with his estranged relatives, the Codys, who run a criminal family enterprise set in Oceanside, California that's governed by the respected matriarch Janine "Smurf" Cody.

The Codys partake in numerous criminal activities and pull off various heists to make money. These jobs are undertaken by J's uncles who consist of Barry "Baz" Blackwell, Smurf's adopted son who calls the shots, Andrew "Pope" Cody, the oldest and most dangerous of Smurf's sons, Craig Cody, the tough and fearless middle son and Deran Cody, the troubled and suspicious youngest son. Associates of the Cody Family include Catherine Belen, Baz's live-in girlfriend and mother of their daughter Lena, Nicky Belmont, J's girlfriend and fellow high school student, Lucy, Baz's mistress from Mexico, and Mia Benitez, a young gang member and member of the Trujillo family.

A younger Smurf, who's a member of a crew of career criminals while establishing her future criminal enterprise, is also depicted in the years 1977, 1984, 1992 and 1999. Members of her crew include Jake Dunmore, her on-again/ off-again boyfriend, Manny, the leader of her crew, and later her own children, teenagers Andrew and Baz and her only daughter, Julia Cody.
