Notable Events in Each Season
Season 1
Part of the second half of the season dealt with the controversies Joey Golden was facing, leading to some heated moments between him and Seth. Joey felt like Seth didn't deserve all the high praise and was jealous of his brother's achievements. As he was entitled to "have the glory" and expected Seth to give him a "more luxurious life", this led to a very explosive finale between the two brothers.
Season 2
Joey was demoted due to the scandals he faced before and even during the airing of the first season. Joey would get even more volatile with Seth as a result of feeling unfairly judged by the scandals, which he would finally confirm as more than just rumours. Midway through the season, Joey's jealousy towards Seth led to a drunk Joey initiating a very violent physical fight. The result was Seth filing for a restraining order and Joey being sacked from the show.
Season 3
Season 4
This season focused around the drama Aunt Val and Uncle Terry were starting. The two had the fame go to their heads and tried to stir up drama for "TV time". This led to damaging rumours that even led the police to investigate family members. This led to a large scale fight with the Azevedo family (Diane's family) in the finale. In the reunion, Aunt Val and Uncle Terry were remorseless, leading the Golden siblings, as well as Diane and Eddie, to cut them out of their lives. This led to a large change in the recurring cast with the other aunts and uncles, sans Uncle Toby, to go from "recurring" to "guest" as Seth wanted to avoid another incident like this.
Season 5
Seth had dropped the restraining order against Joey to try and make amends and put everything behind him. While Joey was a bit more mature at the beginning of the conversation, he felt "betrayed" by Seth "getting all this screentime" while he, Joey, was "not getting the fame he deserved". This led Seth to tell Joey off for being fame-hungry and not caring about the family one bit. He told Joey to let it go and stop putting fame before the people who love him. After the conversation, Seth felt like the two of them shouldn't talk anymore if they are going to have the same conversation time and time again. Joey would not show up for the rest of the season.
Season 6
Diane and Eddie prepare for their retirement while Lydia and Seth welcome their first child. Everybody is impressed with the new and improved Tony, allowing him to get back in everybody's good graces. Aimee Rios and Marie Golden get married in the season finale.
The season aired from June 16th, 2022 to September 15th, 2022 (14 episodes).
