Growing Up Fisher Premieres on NBC on February 23, 2014
It's not every family that's brought closer together by divorce, but then again, the Fishers are anything but typical. Take Mel Fisher (J.K. Simmons, "The Closer," "Law & Order"), for example. He's chopping down trees, showing his daughter how to drive, and playing football with his son… except that Mel's blind. Then there's Joyce (Jenna Elfman, "Dharma & Greg," "1600 Penn"), who is your typical teenager - really into fashion, busy with school - but the problem is she's Mom. That makes it difficult for her actual teenage daughter, Katie (Ava Deluca-Verley, "Southland"), whose advice (and clothes) Joyce is always seeking. At the center of all this is Henry (Eli Baker), the Fishers' 11-year-old son. Having always been his dad's eyes and wingman, Henry is less than thrilled when his job is outsourced to Mel's new guide dog, Elvis. While the boy is at first reluctant to accept the changes that Elvis brings, adult Henry (voiceover by Jason Bateman, "Arrested Development," "Identity Thief") realizes upon reflection that his parents' split finally allowed the Fishers to become one happy (divorced) family.
Inspired by his own life, DJ Nash ("Up All Night," "Bent") serves as executive producer along with Bateman, Jim Garavente ("Identity Thief") and Tucker Cawley ("Up All Night," "Everybody Loves Raymond"). "Growing Up Fisher" is a production of Universal Television and Aggregate Films.

The hotel guy saying did you not see the no dogs allowed sign was amusing as Mel had a guide dog and the fact he's a successful lawyer had the guy worried but pretending to loose the dog to bring the family together was sneaky Author: bala Time: 2-19-2014 10:59 Subject: Reply 3#3 codebreaker's post

I'm not surprised Joyce got fired from her new job after making excuses for her start time but the fact she hadn't actually started was amusing but working at Mel's law firm was even worse and Katie helping Henry with his crush on Jenny was nice but looks like she has a boyfriend Author: codebreaker Time: 4-2-2014 12:39 Subject: 1x06 Drug/Bust
Mel finding marijuana in Katie's bag was unfortunate as Joyce left it there when she borrowed it and Henry and his best friend Runyen going on a quest to see the one thing a boy must see before he goes blind but going in the boys locker room instead of the girls was amusing Author: codebreaker Time: 4-27-2014 11:11 Subject: 1x07 Katie You Can Drive My Car

It's a good job Mel was blind as Katie ignored him about getting a job and Henry finding out the kids at his school think his mother is a MILF was interesting as he didn't know the whole meaning of the word Author: codebreaker Time: 6-20-2014 13:19 Subject: 1x12 Madi About You

Jenny tagging along on the vacation was great as Henry had a crush on her but trust the dog to destroy the hotel room after the trouble they had getting it in the first place
