According to Jim (2001)

TV-PG 30m 6.5/10 IMDb

Jim is the typical all-American guy — a macho "everyman" — with a soft spot for his beautiful wife and children. Jim's boyish bravado and humorous antics keep a certain level of turmoil in their home, but there's never a doubt that this "opposites attract" couple are in their marriage for keeps!

Creator: Jonathan Stark, Tracy Newman
