Yes, Dear is an American sitcom created by Alan Kirschenbaum and Gregory Garcia that originally ran on CBS for six seasons, from October 2, 2000, to February 15, 2006, with a total of 122 episodes. It starred Anthony Clark, Jean Louisa Kelly, Mike O'Malley, Liza Snyder and Joel Homan and was produced by Amigos de Garcia Productions, Cherry Tree Entertainment, CBS Productions and 20th Century Fox Television.

Critics panned the show when it premiered and anticipated it to be canceled during its first season. Despite this, Yes, Dear ended up being a sleeper hit for CBS.[1] In March 2006, CBS canceled the series after 6 seasons, after Anthony Clark was hired to host NBC's Last Comic Standing.[2]

Premise

[edit | edit source]

Greg Warner, a successful businessman in the film industry, and Kim, his level-headed stay-at-home wife, do their best to be the perfect parents to their young son Sammy (and later daughter Emily). Things become difficult when Kim's sister Christine and her husband Jimmy Hughes move into the Warners' guest house with their two rambunctious boys, Dominic and Logan.

Cancellation

[edit | edit source]

CBS originally announced the cancellation of Yes, Dear in early 2004, but later ordered a fifth season of 13 episodes to debut at midseason, after the show cut its license fee to secure the renewal.[9] After canceling Center of the Universe,[10] CBS debuted the fifth season of Yes, Dear on Wednesday, February 16, 2005, at 9:30 p.m. Eastern.[11] CBS then ordered a sixth season of 22 episodes to air from 2005 to 2006, but that order was then reduced to 13 episodes. Two episodes that were prevented from airing during season five due to news preemptions were pushed to season six.[12][13] On May 15, 2006, CBS announced that Yes, Dear has been canceled after 6 seasons.[14]

Syndication

[edit | edit source]

Reruns of Yes, Dear aired on TBS from 2004 until 2012,[15] Nick at Nite from 2012 until 2014,[16] CMT from 2012 until 2013,[17] and NickMom from 2013 until 2015.[18]

Connection with Raising Hope

[edit | edit source]

In 2010, Garcia premiered a new show, titled Raising Hope from Fox. In the third season, in episode sixteen, Brian Doyle-Murray is shown as an executive of the Hollywood studio, a reference to his role as Mr. Savitsky.[19]

In the next episode, Mike O'Malley and Liza Snyder reprise the characters of Jimmy and Christine Hughes and are prominently featured as characters who have made a habit of watching a sex video made by the characters in the new series, Virginia and Burt Chance. Dominic, Logan, and the guest house are also referred to in the conversation.[20] Jimmy makes another appearance in the fourth season, in episode 19 (a different actress portrays Christine and is renamed Christy).[21]
