FATHER & SON - The best new comedy of the new year is on a network you’ve never heard of: Pop TV. In this Canadian series, Eugene's partner-in-crime is fellow “SCTV” alum Catherine O’Hara. They play Johnny and Moira Rose, a rich couple whose baroque home is repossessed by the IRS thanks to a shady deal brokered by their crooked business manager. There’s nowhere for the Roses and their two spoiled children — David (Levy) and Alexis (Annie Murphy) — to go, except to Schitt’s Creek, a town Johnny admits “he bought as a joke” for his son, but the fun starts when the family gets there. 

John Hemphill is a Canadian comic actor, writer and producer. A longtime player with The Second City troupe's Toronto cast, he was a writer for SCTV as well as appearing in supporting character roles such as Happy Marsden, Wesley Wilks, Willem DeCooney and Dr Ryne Thurman.
