A Minute with Stan Hooper, also simply known as Stan Hooper, is a short-lived American Sitcom that aired on the FOX Network, starring Norm Macdonald. The series was canceled after six of the thirteen episodes produced were aired.
The central character's name, Stan Hooper, was taken from Macdonald's work on Saturday Night Live, but the characters were vastly different. The role also allowed Macdonald to play the straight man among a cast of eccentric characters, a departure from his traditional comedy style.

[edit] Plot
Hooper, a famous newspaper columnist turned television commentator, moves his family from their New York home to a small Wisconsin town, where he hopes to better get in touch with Middle America in an attempt to make his weekly minute-long television commentaries more appealing to a larger audience. While there, he interacts with the folksy, and sometimes strange, townspeople.
