Series / Sons Of Tucson

Go To

A Short-Lived American Sitcom that has three brothers (Frank Dolce, Matthew Levy, and Benjamin Stockham) hiring a man (Tyler Labine) to be their father when their real one is in prison and their mother no longer in the picture.

The show also features Joe Lo Truglio, Sarayu Rao, Natalie Martinez, Michael Horse, and Edwin H Bravo.

It aired on FOX for one season.


Tropes for the series:

  • Alliterative Name: Maggie Morales.
  • Department of Child Disservices: The boys have a presumably correct belief that if Child Services knew they were living without any parental guardian, they would be forced into some undesirable living arrangement. Because of this, they resort to hiring a rather immature man to pretend to be their father; not because they think he can take care of them better than they can take care of themselves, but primarily just so that they can keep on living in their current home rather than whatever Child Services would decide for them.
  • One-Word Title: Pilot and Gina.
  • Paid-for Family: The central premise. The Gunderson boys hire Ron Snuffkin to pretend to be their dad.
  • Stand-In Parents: The brothers hire Ron to be a fake dad to keep up appearances after their real father is put in prison.
  • Tagline: "Fake Dad. Real Trouble".
