I think writers come up with shows like this just to stretch the envelope on TV Single Dad definitions.
Mom gets kidnapped in the opening episode, and so Senator Dad is raising the kids alone. This show qualified as much as Veronica Mars does, so I’m counting it as a true TV Single Dad show.
A little six-week series that came and went with nary a blip on the Neilsen meters.
