The family life, romantic life, and career of Martin Tupper, a divorced New York City book editor. The show distinctively interjected clips from older black and white television series to punctuate Tupper's feelings or thoughts.
01 The First Episode Martin Tupper, New York book editor and product of the first television generation, faces a crisis: his ex-wife-to-be, Judith, is demanding that he sign their divorce papers so that she can re-marry. Should he try to win her back, or is it time to get back in the dating game? 02 Death Takes a Coffee Break Martin, while fooling around with a much younger college girl (an Eddie Charles hook-up), ends up in the hospital. His doctor instructs him to change his lifestyle around to prevent another (possibly worse) incident. Top of the list? Cut out caffeine. Of course, he receives a lot of ridicule as he goes about this. 03 Sex and the Single Father Worried that the divorce is the cause of Jeremy's poor concentration at school, Judith tells Martin that it's actually because of a crush on his teacher. After some wrangling with Judith, it's left to Martin to have 'the talk'. 04 Sole Sister Initially overjoyed by a whirlwind visit from his globe-trotting baby sister 'Beano', Martin finds it difficult to accept that she's more grown up than he imagined; and unfortunately, his best friend Eddie is part of the problem. 05 Angst for the Memories After being admonished by an old school friend for not becoming a famous writer, Martin feels galvanized to pick up the quill again—but are his central characters a little too close to home? 06 ...And Sheep Are Nervous Martin accidentally finds himself dating a controlling, unstable woman. 07 Over Your Dead Body In order to secure a much-needed vacation, Martin seduces a grieving widow for a tawdry book. 08 Martin Gets Lucky Martin dates a witch, and good things can't stop happening to him.
