Rating: 2/5 -- An overstuffed family drama that's not nearly as magical as it thinks it is.

Avalon is a parable about the price of prosperity, the evolution from the extended family at the dining-room table to the nuclear family hunched over TV trays. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

The experiences of several generations of a Jewish family in Baltimore. As the younger generations become more and more Americanized, they loosen the very close family ties that the older generations seek to maintain. From poverty through prosperity, the Krichinsky family faces the changing world with enduring humor and abiding love.
