Summary[]

The series follows the lives of the disfunctional Harpers'. Nick the oldest of the children is very laid back and is a layabout (often annoying his father, Ben), Janey is the second eldest but is shallow and only interested in herself, Michael is often considered a geek and constantly outsmarts the family, Susan is a control-freak who is a terrible cook and Ben who is almost constantly miserable and the main breadwinner of the household. Ben has a dental assistant who is very forgetful and has a wierd way of thinking, called Brigitte. Though the family is disfunctional, they all get along well and care about each other (even if it is buried deep within). Nick is constantly losing his job, Janey has a different boyfriend every week seemingly, and Michael busies himself with work or using his computer.
