An anxious man's life is turned up side down after his cousin arrives from overseas. The cousin is good-natured and naive. They go through hilarious adventures. This launched the career of Bronson Pinchot. He ended up being a great Hollywood movie character actor. Pinchot's accent makes for awkward funny comedy. Mark Linn-Baker had great comedic chemistry with Pinchot. Sometimes they argued and fought but they were always there for each other.
