Taboo: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

We've taken you around the world exploring behaviors and lifestyles that are acceptable in some cultures but forbidden, illegal or reviled in others. But this season, we're looking in our own backyard. Taboo USA goes behind the closed doors and picket fences of America's most normal looking homes to find a fringe few that can only be described as... taboo. And we're showcasing those willing to push the boundaries of taste, societal acceptance; those obsessive about their hobbies, their relationships, and their lifestyles.
