After the sudden loss of their parents, the Salingers must band together to keep their own lives on track, discovering first loves, last calls, and themselves along the rocky road to growing up. Headlined by a young, sexy cast, including Neve Campbell, Scott Wolf, and Lacey Chabert, this highly-rated, long-running series (1994-2000) firmly found its place as a pop culture phenomenon for all ages. Shot through with equal doses heartache and laughter, Party of Five: The Complete First Season remains an emotional knockout, delivering all 22 episodes of this Golden Globe winning (Best TV Series, Drama, 1996) series' breakthrough debut season, proving again that home is where the heart is.
