Emmy Award Winner.
Dr. Craig Huffstodt is a family man and a successful psychiatrist who gets a wake-up call when one of his patients, a 15-year-old boy, commits suicide during a therapy session. Huff's whole existence - as doctor, husband, father, son, brother and friend - goes through a dramatic reawakening as he begins to question who he is, what he's made of and how he fits in -- anywhere. Having always considered himself the eternal caretaker, whose mission is to save people, Huff suddenly realizes that he can't save everyone. The lines of reality start to blur as he goes from the functionally insane at the office to the daily insanities of life with his family at home. His nurturing nature is tested at nearly every turn and soon his so-called "normal" world and family life start to become as surreal as the world of his patients.

"First rate...a terrific show: funny, emotionally complex and surprising...the cast is wonderful.  Newsweek

Editor's Note
Psychiatrist Dr. Craig Huffstodt (Emmy-winning Hank Azaria) has always seen himself as caretaker and savior, but his entire sense of self goes haywire after a teenage patient commits suicide during a session. Huffstodt's life gets a sudden wakeup call, as he juggles his clinical insane patients and his occasionally crazy family.

Professional Reviews

Home Theater Info DVD Review 9 of 10
Typical of Showtime they searched for and found the best possible cast. They really thought out of the box for the actors they got here. Hank Azaria was just about the last person I would have thought of for a role as complex as Huff. He is best known as the man of a thousand voices providing many of the voices for the animated series 'The Simpsons'. He also is frequently found supplying the voices for a plethora of animated features and was a regular on 'Mad About You' as the somewhat dim dog walker, Nat. this role permits this talented man to really stretch his acting muscles demonstrating a full understanding of what makes people tick. Paget Brewster plays perfectly off of Azaria's talent creating an amazing chemistry. Even when she threatens their marriage she is able to maintain a sympathetic bond with the audience.
