The Johnson Family
In series one, Eric was serving a sentence in Sim State prison for beating up his wife, Rose. Last series Eric moved to Pleasantview, and it was revealed that Eric was formally a con-man, and Rose had in-fact been beaten up by two thugs sent by one of Eric's previous con victims. Eric took the blame, to avoid an investigation into his past. Eric only married Rose to con her and claim ownership of her home. The con went wrong at the last minute, when the two thugs arrived. Eric lives with Nina Caliente, and they have formed a relationship together. Eric still needs to sort out a divorce with Rose, but he is too busy with Nina, and trying to hold down his first real job, to find the time to do it.

The Pleasant Family

In series two, Kaylynn was in a coma for the majority of the time, with her and her child being fed by machines. When Kaylynn woke up she couldn't remember that her first wedding has been unsuccessful because of Daniel chasing her into the road, where Kaylynn was hit by a car. Sophie, the couples baby had survived the coma and was born shortly after.

The Burb Family
The Burb family are fairly new to Pleasantview, after arriving last series. John and Jennifer got married at a young age and had their daughter Lucy shortly after.
