Life with Roger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Life with Roger was a situation comedy aired on the WB as part of its 1996-97 schedule.

Life with Roger starred Mike O'Malley as Roger Hoyt, a formerly suicidal homeless man dissuaded from jumping off of a bridge by Jason Fuller (Maurice Godin), a man whose car had coincidentally broken down on the bridge just before Roger could complete his planned jump. Jason, a medical doctor, talks Roger out of going though with his suicide plan, and Roger repairs his car. They eventually become roommates when Roger talks Jason out of marrying his finacėe, and typical sitcom mayhem ensues.

This program premiered in August 1996 and ran till January 1997, then going on hiatus. It returned to the air in a new time slot in March 1997, but was permanently cancelled in June 1997.
