Miscellaneous Dads is about four fathers of kids (one divorced, one widowered, one married, one unmarried) who try to manage their work, their kids, some privacy, their exes, their new love lives, and their friends at the same time without causing chaos-which does happen quite often. One father, Mark LeClair (Ted McGinley) and his ex-wife, Julie (Laurie Metcalf) are divorced. Mark and Julie have two kids, Kayla, 15, and Michael, 10. Mark and Julie have split custody of the kids. Another father, Tim Anderson (Tim Allen) and his deceased wife, Jane, have also two kids, Kevin, 17, and Lindsay, 13. Jane died giving birth to their third and last born child 12 years ago, who also died minutes after Jane died. Tim has been a single dad of two kids ever since Jane and the baby died. Another father, Mitch Campbell (Damon Wayans) has 8 year old daughter, Megan, from a former girlfriend of his, Kelly (Vivica A. Foxx), who in the past wanted nothing to do with Mitch and Megan, but now wants to become a big part of Mitch and Megan's lives. Another father, Keith Richardson (Matthew Perry) and his wife, Nicole (Heather Locklear) have three kids, Kimberly, 13, Logan, 11, and Justin, 7. Nicole is 6 months pregnant with Keith's and her fourth child. Mitch, Mark, Tim, and Keith all work at the same advertsing agency and are best friends.
