| Synopsis: "Listen Up" stars Emmy
Award nominee Jason Alexander in a comedy about a well-regarded sports
talk-show host and newspaper columnist who struggles to receive the same
respect and admiration from his family that he does from his fans. Based on the writings of real-life sports commentator and columnist Tony Kornheiser, Tony Kleinman is an irreverent figure who banters about all things sports with his witty sidekick, former football player Bernie Widmer on their television talk show, "Shut Up and Listen." Tony has also begun writing a humorous syndicated newspaper column that includes commentary on his family, who are less than thrilled to have their trials and tribulations made public Tony's wife, Dana, works as a fundraiser. While not a sports fan, she is always supportive of her paranoid and obsessive but loving husband. Megan is their know-it-all, soccer-playing 14-year-old daughter. Mickey is their 15-year-old golf-prodigy son. While Tony's inability to self-edit before broadcasting his thoughts is what most endears him to his fans, it keeps his friends and family on their toes, as everything could be fodder for his column.
