Erle Stanley Gardner found a formula that worked. He subsequently built what he called a "fiction factory," to manufacture copies based on that formula. It featured a sort of circular slide rule that in various spins could and did produce scores of books.
Disney's cable property does this now. The formula is simple: find yourself and at the same time (usually) reconcile some problem with a relationship with your parents.
The spin of the wheel this time has dirt skateboards and Hawaii. Nothing else differs from the formula.
It must be hell to have airtime to fill, and unrelenting obligation. Its yet another reason you won't find much worth watching on TeeVee.
This time the mom is a redhead, an artifact of a different Disney story factory.
Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 3: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.
