DESCRIPTION:
(from ABC's press release) Feel the tremors as political correctness shatters around you. Earthquake's loud aggressive stand-up comedy has audiences rolling in the aisles and stomping their feet. Beat cop Earthquake is not the luckiest man in DC. If there's a one percent chance of disaster, it's 100 percent certain it will happen to him. Three out of his four kids were accidents. What are the odds that his tall son wouldn't like sports? What are the odds his daughter would only excel at expensive things? What are the odds that he can never get any down time? 100%. He's got a great wife, Heaven, who married for love. But his sister married for money, and SHE got the son the NBA wants. From the creator of Wanda at Large and the producers of Smallville and I'm With Her comes a comedy in the tradition of Bernie Mac. This is one very real family that's really very funny. |
