History[edit]
ABC era[edit]
The first series aired on ABC during the 1995–1996 season, but was cancelled after one season. NBC picked up the show for the following season, but despite improving in the ratings, it was again cancelled after one season. In the first season, network executives considered his routine "too Southern" for a national network and based his sitcom in Bloomington, Indiana.[1]
Jay Mohr and Bob Saget made regular or cameo appearances, as did country singers Tim McGraw and Travis Tritt.
Broadcast[edit]
