The series stars Bernie Casey as Mike Harris,[1][2] a working-class African-American father of five who relocates his family from Detroit, Michigan, to Los Angeles, California, after the death of his wife. The series is based upon Love Is Not Enough, a TV movie that aired on NBC on June 12, 1978. It was the first weekly American TV drama series centered on an African-American family.[citation needed]
The series aired for only four episodes and was the lowest-rated U.S. broadcast network primetime series that season, ranking 114th with a 7.6/12 rating/share.[3]
