Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Light and funny.

4 seasons, but most episodes stand on their own, so you can dip in anywhere (about 12 minutes each).
What might put you off
Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.

See Dr. Steve learn about restaurants, spend time with his family, conquer his fears, and more. Featuring guest appearances by Jan Skylar, Wayne Skylar, and David Liebe Hart.
