About the show
Fairview revolves around the upper-middle class, Black American Frasier family, who is gearing up for Grandma’s birthday. Beverly needs this dinner to be perfect - but the silverware’s wrong, the radio’s on the fritz, Jasmine is drinking, Dayton isn’t helping, Keisha is being a rebellious teenager, and Tyrone might not show up at all! Fairview is a sitcom-style drama that explores what it feels like to be living under surveillance and examines who gets to control the narrative of their own lives.
