Silver Spoons
It's not easy being the man of the house!
Created by Ben Starr
On NBC
A warm, high-energy sitcom about a wealthy man-child learning fatherhood through a sudden son, built on affection and weekly domestic comedy rather than conflict.
Wealthy, young-at-heart business owner Edward Stratton III is stunned to discover his brief marriage several years ago produced a son, Richard Bluedhorn-Stratton, now 12 and standing in Edward's living room, wanting to live with the father he never knew. Although Edward's first impulse is to send Ricky to boarding school, he soon relents and let his son move in with him and Kate, his love-struck secretary.
