Story of 2 poor families that are opposite of each other sharing an old mansion split int 2 halves by a tin wall. One family consists of The Pickles: Gambling Dad, Drunk/Promiscuous Mom, a daughter, and 2 sons - not a farthing to their name but the title of the mansion. The other family, The Lambs: Dad and Mom who start a business out of their half of the house paying rent to The Pickles and their 3 boys and 3 girls - all full of laughter and fun. Neither is all good nor is all bad. Just Us. I will miss them.
