Set in suburban [[Louisville, Colorado]], Engvall played a family counselor called Bill Pearson who cannot always understand his own family. [[Nancy Travis]] co-starred as his wife and [[Tim Meadows]] played his best friend. The Pearson children were portrayed by [[Jennifer Lawrence]], [[Graham Patrick Martin]], and [[Skyler Gisondo]].
Line 33 ⟶ 30:
[[File:Bill Engvall 2010.jpg|thumb|left|Engvall in 2010]]
 
The show focuses on parenting issues like allowance controversies, driver’sdriver's licenses, parking tickets and larger issues like raising responsible children. The Pearsons also try to keep the spark alive in their marriage and balance work with family life.
 
Bill Pearson is a family counselor who's just struggling to understand his own children. There's his wife, Susan Pearson, who is a stay-at-home mom determined to keep her family in line, his son, Trent Pearson who's attempting to live a good life while trying to live up to his father's hopes, their daughter, Lauren Pearson, who is struggling between the choices of going with her parents' wishes or being rebellious and defying them, and then Bill's son, Bryan Pearson, who is constantly in trouble for such things as his pet snake getting loose.
Teenage daughter Lauren (Lawrence) is the oldest child, a high-school girl dealing with classes and dating. Trent (Martin) is the middle child, dim but affable. Bryan (Gisondo) is the youngest and the "brainiac" of the family.
 
Bill works in the same building as his closest friend, Paul Dufrayne (Meadows). Paul is a hair-replacement specialist who is treated like part of the Pearson family (the kids refer to him as 'Uncle Paul').
