　　该系列剧基于Brian McGreevy的同名恐怖小说改编。
　　宾夕法尼亚州的一个钢铁小镇上，一名年轻的女孩的尸体被发现抛弃在戈德弗雷家族的炼钢厂附近，由于警方时时不能破案，而17岁的吉普赛问题少年彼得·鲁曼切克和戈德弗雷家族，奥莉薇·戈德弗雷（法米克·詹森 Famke Janssen 饰）的儿子罗曼·戈德弗雷（比尔·斯卡斯加德 Bill Skarsgård 饰）也成为嫌疑人。为了洗清嫌疑，彼得和罗曼两人决定一同去调查，但是他们很快就发现了惊讶的事情......
　　凶手到底是谁？这个普通的钢铁小镇到底隐藏着怎样的秘密？

　　从表面上看，基蒂、玛戈特、布里和奥利维亚似乎没有什么共同之处，但有一种激情将他们团结在一起——揭露不公正。
　　他们组成自己的秘密社会，DGM - 他们不发疯，他们得到甚至 - 玩匿名恶作剧，以揭露欺凌。
　　但是，当他们的最新目标，罗尼，最终死了，手里拿着一张DGM卡，女孩们意识到她们不像她们想象的那么匿名——现在有人想要报复。
　　班纳曼学校从外面看起来可能很漂亮，但表面之下有些东西很腐败。竞争被鼓励到残酷点，欺凌是普遍和接受的机构老师看的，如果你不能接受它，你不适合学校。
　　这四个女孩开始为那些在学校受委屈的人伸张正义，但是这些女孩却遭到反对。
　　DGM 发现自己被陷害了自己没有犯下的罪行。他们唯一的选择是找出谁是真正的凶手，为什么他们被陷害，并一劳永逸地澄清他们的名字。
　　对于基蒂、玛戈特、布里和奥利维亚来说，这也是一个初恋、考试和身份危机的时候。爱情与关系、信任、真正的友谊、赋权、青少年身份和独立的主题在整个系列中令人上瘾。即使他们专注于成绩或球员，危险也永远不会遥远

　　Mrs. Brown's Boys became a runaway success upon its initial broadcast. Every episode aired won its timeslot for RTÉ, with an average viewership of 753,500 in January, 2011. One episode's rating beat that of RTÉ's own ratings giant The Late Late Show, with 856,000 viewers tuning in to watch. However, critics disliked the show. "The whole thing is entirely predicated on viewers finding a man dressed as a foul-mouthed elderly woman intrinsically funny," noted Bernice Harrison in the Irish Times. "If you do, you’re away in a hack (and the viewing figures are astronomical), but if you don’t, and you think that died out with Les Dawson and Dick Emery, then it’s a long half-hour." The Irish Independent said that Mrs Brown's Boys was the type of TV programme that "that makes you vaguely embarrassed to be Irish". The Daily Telegraph's Sam Richards noted that show's comedy has a "rudimentary nature", consisting of "an old-fashioned blend of silly voices and slapstick, played out in front of a live studio audience who collapse into giggles at the mere mention of the word “willy”.

　　Legendary film, theatre and television actress, Brenda Blethyn OBE, is to return to the iconic role of Vera for one, final series.
