Gary Unmarried stars Jay Mohr and Paula Marshall in a comedy about Gary Barnes, a recently single painting contractor, and his controlling ex-wife, Allison, who face post-divorce mayhem after 15 years of marriage as they each embark on new relationships. He’s the fun parent and she’s the strict one. Together, they share custody of their two children – Louise, a politically correct and environmentally conscious 11-year-old, and Tom, their socially awkward 14-year-old son who is nervous around girls.
Charming and acerbic, Gary hasn’t dated since the split, but finally connects with Vanessa, a single mother whose condo he was hired to paint. He dreads telling Allison about Vanessa because it doesn’t adhere to her belief in their marriage counselor’s book, “Rules for the Perfect Divorce.” However, when Allison tells him that she’s engaged to their shrink, all bets are off and Gary decides it’s time to move forward. Now, in pursuit of post-marriage happiness, Gary must juggle his eclectic world of an ex-wife, their two kids, their shrink and his gorgeous new girlfriend.
Gary Unmarried is a fun sitcom to wrap up your hump day with! The recently married in real life Jay Mohr plays a recently divorced man on CBS’s Gary Unmarried who is getting back on the dating scene while taking care of his kids the days he has custody of them. I always enjoy Jay Mohr’s comedic timing and this show uses that perfectly. Even though the show is based on a dysfunctional family. it is a great family sitcom for the modern day where dysfunctional is normal!
So tune into Gary Unmarried on CBS tonight and every Wednesday at 8:30p for show that will make you laugh out loud!
