Overview

Synopsis

Bounce is the story of men and women in late 19th century America willing to take risks to grab their piece of the American dream. The show specifically focuses on Addison and Wilson Mizner, two brothers who are constantly looking for the next way to strike it rich. They give it their all during opportunities like the Gold Rush in Alaska and the land boom in Florida. Throughout the show, the brothers constantly reinvent themselves and represent American ability to ˜bounce' to the next great opportunity.
