Synopsis and details
The year is 1904, and the aristocratic Pringle family has just "failed upward" into total poverty. After Arthur Pringle loses the family fortune on a fleet of steam-powered underwater mail-carriages, he and his wife Michelle are forced to move their daughters—sophisticated 12-year-old Jamille and chaotic 8-year-old Nicki—from a manor to a cramped city tenement. While Arthur attempts to invent his way back to high society with ridiculous contraptions, Michelle secretly runs local betting rings to pay the rent. Between Jamille’s desperate attempts to stay "classy" and Nicki’s habit of out-gambling the local dockworkers, the Pringles are proving that you can lose your money and your monocle, but you can’t lose your nerve. In an era of rapid progress and even faster disasters, "Good Heavens!" is a slapstick celebration of a family trying to stay elegant while being completely broke.

Evicted from their manor, Arthur and Michelle must move their daughters—the mortified 12-year-old Jamille and the fearless 8-year-old Nicki—into a cramped city tenement.
High Stakes and Low Tea
10 episodes
The Pringles are back for another year of Edwardian-era hijinks with a 70s soul! Following their move to the city tenement, Arthur is more determined than ever to "strike it rich," leading the family into a series of chaotic misadventures involving the 1904 World’s Fair and the first-ever "motor-car" race. Twelve-year-old Jamille has officially become the neighborhood’s youngest etiquette coach, though her lessons are constantly interrupted by her eight-year-old "shadow," Nicki. Nicki has traded her marbles for sophisticated fans and lace, mimicking Jamille’s every move—usually with disastrously funny results. From Michelle’s secret poker games with the Mayor’s wife to Arthur’s steam-powered laundry machine that "cleans" clothes into shreds, Season 2 proves that while the Pringles may be down, they are definitely not out.
