Synopsis: Comedy sensation Anthony Anderson ("Barbershop," "Me,
Myself & Irene," "Big Momma's House," "Life") brings his unique brand
of humor to The WB in a new multi-ethnic comedy. Anthony plays a struggling
actor and single dad trying to provide a stable environment for his
8-year-old son, Tuga (newcomer Damani Roberts). As soon as Anthony moves
back into his parents' home, he immediately remembers why he left in
the first place.
His mother Flo (Roz Ryan, Amen)
is always understanding and supportive, but his cantankerous father
Joe (John Amos, Good
Times, The
West Wing) wants Anthony to abandon his acting hopes
and take a "real job" working in the family beauty salon/barber shop.
To complicate things, Anthony's old room is being rented out to a white
medical student, George (stage actor Paul Bartholomew), leaving Anthony
alone in the garage. Torn between teaching his son about determination
and providing for him, Anthony is about to put his dreams on hold. It
takes Tuga to remind him that, aside from each other, their dreams are
all they have.
