Synopsis

Every Other Weekend is a half-hour comedy about Rich, a single dad trying to stay afloat while dealing with his uncooperative baby mama, Melissa, and the wild circle of friends he can’t shake. Every other weekend, Rich gets to see his three kids—Kia, Kyle, and baby Charlie—who are his world, even if Melissa tries to make it as hard as possible for him to be around. She’s got her new man, John, playing super stepdad, and Rich ain’t feeling that one bit.Rich runs Exquisite Burger, a local spot where he and his boys hang out. But the real stress comes from Ahmed, the cheap franchise owner, always killing Rich’s dream of starting his own restaurant. Still, Rich keeps pushing, even if his friends; Brooklyn the go-to friend, Cary the broke mooch, Country the cock-blocker, and Del the streetwise hustler aren’t always the best help.Rich’s love life is another headache. He’s got his eyes on Shawna, a no-nonsense bartender who’s got more game than most. But getting her attention isn’t easy. Between the mess with Melissa, running his burger joint, and his wild crew, Rich is just trying to keep it together.How long can he juggle seeing his kids only every other weekend?
