Television Series
A television series named Uncle Buck was broadcast on CBS in 1990. It starred Kevin Meaney as Buck, a slob who drinks and smokes. When his brother and sister-in-law die in a car accident, Buck is named as the guardian of Tia, Miles, and Maizy. The show was not received well by TV critics. After it was moved to Friday, in an attempt by CBS to establish a comedy night there, the shows ratings quickly plummeted and it was canceled.
