"Pilot" - Mixing family with business is never easy, and Jack Shea is about to learn that lesson the hard way. When Jack's father, Tony, has a heart attack and is forced to hand over the keys to his beloved handyman business, Jack's eager to finally step up and make his father proud. Unfortunately Jack's past career efforts have been less than stellar, so everyone seems to be waiting for him to fail. His new job isn't made any easier by Tony's rebellious, troublemaking assistant, Darren, and Darren's flirtatious sister, Stitch, who works at the local hardware store. But with the support of his Aunt Terry and his oddball yet endearing cousin Mason, Jack Shea may just find his true calling right at home, on the premiere of "Family Tools," WEDNESDAY, MAY 1 (8:30-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

"Family Tools" stars Kyle Bornheimer ("Bachelorette," "Romantically Challenged," "Perfect Couples") as Jack Shea, J.K. Simmons ("Ultimate Spiderman," "Generator Rex," "The Closer") as Tony Shea, Edi Gathegi ("X Men: First Class") as Darren Poynton, Johnny Pemberton ("21 Jump Street," "Aim High") as Mason Baumgardner, Danielle Nicolet ("X Men TV Series") as Lisa "Stitch" Poynton and Leah Remini ("In the Motherhood," "King of Queens") as Terry Baumgardner.


10 episodes. Don't expect this to get a 2nd season. For all intents and purposes, this is getting burned off. Poor Kyle Bornheimer. He cannot get on a successful series.

It's easy to see why this show was shelved so long.

Yeah it was. That was terrible.
It wasn't even bad enough to be a guilty pleasure.

I only tuned in because J.K. Simmons & Leah Remini are in it. Pretty horrible show.

Wait, this was canceled already?

Leah Remini just seemed like she played a version of herself in King of Queens, and this seemed to reinforce that thought.

It's a shame, I like the premise and I like three main stars, all talented funny people. Any chance it'll get better?

It was cancelled Friday night. JK Simmons already signed on for a new show on NBC for the Fall.

The black chick's pretty hot

I'm not arguing the show was great, but there were a lot of hits that had less than stellar pilots. I figure they should give it at least three episodes

I thought the second episode was ok.

Show was cancelled people. Nothing to see here. Move along... move along.

I'm surprised you didn't ask a moderator to lock this thread.

Anyone know, will they show the rest of the episodes?
