THE BILL ENGVALL SHOW
Bill Engvall plays Bill Pearson, a family counselor who can't always figure out his own family.

Set in a Denver suburb, Engvall and Travis offer a humorous look at what it takes to be a parent in today's world. They face parenting issues like allowance controversies, driver's licenses and parking tickets, all while trying to keep the spark alive in their marriage and balancing work with family life. Teenage daughter Lauren (Lawrence) is a typical high-school girl who is trying to find her way through classes and dating. Sports fan and video-gamer Trent (Martin) is the middle child. Musically talented neat-freak Bryan (Gisondo) is the resident baby and genius of the family.

"One of the things I talk about in my act is that, as a parent, all you're basically doing is keeping a lid on things until the kids go to college," Engvall says. "I want my show to be a reflection of real life and the real issues that parents and kids face each day."

Is Inspired by Events in Caplan's Own Life

Valerie Bertinelli is returningto the world of sitcoms. She has just signed to star in a new comedy pilot for TBS from writer/executive producer Dave Caplan, whose credits include TBS's highly popular sitcom The Bill Engvall Show, as well as George Lopez and The Drew Carey Show.
