What happens to a loving, rational Dad when his darling, pliable daughters morph
into hormonally-challenged, incomprehensible teenagers? If he's Paul Hennessy,
he reacts in ways even he finds crazy. Thank God he has a 10-year-old son who
still speaks his language.
Based on the best-selling book by Bruce
Cameron that has given solace and belly-laughs to parents across the country,
this show finds comedy in real-life situations. Its distinct point-of-view will
be familiar to countless fathers (and their bemused wives and offspring).
Directed by Ten Things I Hate About You's Gil Junger and produced
by Tom Shadyac (Liar Liar and The Nutty Professor), 8 Simple
Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter brings big screen comedy talent home at
last.
