It’s A Family Show

Jason


The youngest.  He has dropped out of high school.  His parents are concerned about him.  As the show begins he is preparing to take the GED.  His brothers kick his butt, helping him study, especially James, who feels a little guilty about the example he sets.



Donald


He’s the father.  Donald works as the sales manager for a national auto parts distributor.  He is an outgoing, competitive man with a charming personality.



Hanna


Yoga instructor.  Fit.  Health conscious.  She runs the house like an office manager.
