I just can not see that working with Cliff a limo Driver and Claire a plumber! I do not thinks the show would have been successful at all if they went with their original idea! and it would have only lasted a season or 2. Thank Gosh they listed to Camille advice as I think she saved the show from being a disaster and flop.

It would have still been a family with two working parents so I don't think their occupations was the reason the show was a hit.
