Synopsis

If underachieving were an Olympic Sport, Ben, Dale and Grace Belmont would sweep the podium every time.

These three siblings have managed to avoid responsibility their entire lives-- until now.

Thrust into the world of 'restaurateuring', the gang must run the business, deal with their oddball neighbours and not kill each other.

Idiot Parade is set in Toronto’s eclectic Kensington Market where anything goes.

Think It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia without the mean bits and New Girl without the mushy bits.

Welcome to Idiot Parade where things are just crazy enough to be crazy.
