Q: Why is Jonathan Harris always billed as a special guest star on "Lost in Space"? He was in every episode, wasn't he?

Kenan Thompson stars in this new comedy as the recently widowed host of the second-most-popular morning television show in Atlanta. At home, Kenan deals with his two young daughters, his father-in-law and his brother/manager. Chris Redd also stars.
