About this show
Three sisters sit on a porch as time hurtles forward and everything happens to them. Marriages bloom and wither. Children grow. Husbands vanish to Plano or sink into a widening hole in the yard. A relentless slug infestation creeps across the lawn. In suburban Texas, the sisters confront the strange plagues of domestic life, recounting memories that feel more like nightmares. Plano is a horror comedy about sisterly love and the surreal fallout of a mother who shrink-wrapped her daughters and sealed them in a tiny box, while their husbands fill infinite space, living countless versions of themselves.
