Dr. Craig Huffstodt is a family man and a successful psychiatrist who gets a wake-up call when one of his patients, a 15-year-old boy, commits suicide during a therapy session. Huff's whole existence - as doctor, husband, father, son, brother and friend - goes through a dramatic reawakening as he begins to question who he is, what he's made of and how he fits in --- anywhere. Having always considered himself the eternal caretaker, whose mission is to save people, Huff suddenly realizes that he can't save everyone. The lines of reality start to blur as he goes from the functionally insane at the office to the daily insanities of life with his family at home. His nurturing nature is tested at nearly every turn and soon his so-called "normal" world and family life start to become as surreal as the world of his patients. (Verleiher-Text)

Fundamentally, this is a classic HBO-like series, seemingly about nothing, just about life. But with jokes, objectiveness, black humor and well-written dialogs. Simply a nice and watchable series about a psychiatrist who needs the help of a professional himself and doesn’t have a chance to relax even at home. His wife and her mother-in-law keep on having petty squabbles, his son is a troublesome teenager and his best friend is an idiosyncratic lawyer. The series relies purely on dialogs and the performances by the Azaria, Platt and Danner trio. And these aspects prove to be very firm foundations.
