TV show description:
This comedy series revolves around a dad who stays home to take care of the kids and discovers it’s harder than he imagined.
A contractor, Adam Burns (Matt LeBlanc) starts spending more time with his kids when his wife goes back to work and discovers a truth that parents eventually realize — their little angels are maniacs. Adam feels fully equipped to take on more parenting responsibilities while his self-assured wife, Andi (Liza Snyder), returns to the workforce after being a stay-at-home mom for 13 years.
Unfortunately, Adam is blindsided by how tough it is to wrangle three messy kids who can’t live without their electronics and Wi-Fi.
Their preteen daughter, Kate (Grace Kaufman), is a master manipulator and is initially thrilled that “Daddy Fun Times” is taking over. Middle child Teddy (Matthew McCann) can’t seem to keep his hands out of his pants — despite constant reminders. Meanwhile, the family’s youngest child is Emme (Hala Finley). She’s nervous about starting kindergarten under the stern supervision of Mrs. Rodriguez (Diana Maria Riva).
In the midst of it all, Adam’s older brother and business partner, Don (Kevin Nealon), enjoys giving him terrible advice about how to run his family. But, with Andi’s encouragement and advice from a couple of equally stressed parents — Marie (Jessica Chaffin) and Lowell (Matt Cook) — Adam takes charge of his brood, lays down the law, and comes to believe he’s going to “nail” this job.
Episode #69 — Happy Ann-RV-sary
Adam tries to give Andi the perfect 20th wedding anniversary gift by recreating their honeymoon.
First aired: June 11, 2020.
What do you think? Do you like the Man with a Plan TV show on CBS? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?
love the show. they always take good shows off and leave yuck stuff. Like Mike and Molly
Love the show! Glad it is back. Mat Leblanc is very funny and glad to see him back on TV.
We love this show and want it back.
I love the show and want it back. ‘Kevin Can wait’ is horrible this season and it’s back. Where is ‘Man With a Plan?’ I really look forward to it coming back.
Love this show! Matt and Kevin are a hilarious coney duo! The writing is spot on too! Don’t miss His show!
I would love to see this show have a season 2. I keep watching to see it return.
2 hilarious shows, Kevin Can Wait & Man with a plan, back to back laughs. Leblanc & James are awesome.
Love this show, Matt Leblanc is hysterical. Please don’t cancel
I loved this show. Much better than Kevin Can Wait. You keep trying to make Kevin Can Wait a success and it just doesn’t work. A Man With A Plan was a success from the beginning.
I personally think man with the plan is hilarious much better than some of these other shows you have on.
Loved the show. Funny comedy. Acting wonderful as well as the writing. so much better than Kevin Can Wait.
Great show why isn’t t on now?
Are you kidding, “Man with a Plan is a great comedy. Keep it going. While “Kevin” slid downhill, “Man…” kept getting better.
Please bring back Man with a Plan. You can take 9 jk off of the air or life in pieces off the air. Man with a Plan is better than Life in Pieces or 9jk.
Renew it please. Plus let us know when it will air.
