See Dad Run is an American television sitcom that premiered on Nick at Nite on October 6, 2012. [1] It stars Scott Baio , who also serves as an executive producer. [1]

After a decade on television (doing a show of the same name as the actual show's title), actor David Hobbs ( Scott Baio ) becomes a stay-at-home dad so his soap-opera star wife ( Alanna Ubach ) can get back in the spotlight, but he quickly realizes that playing a dad on television is much different from the real thing. He has to take care of his three kids, Emily ( Ryan Newman ), Joe ( Jackson Brundage ) and Janie (Bailey Michelle Brown) with the help of his best friends, Marcus ( Mark Curry ) and Kevin ( Ramy Youssef ).

In June 2014, Nickelodeon released See Dad Run: The Complete First Season as a manufacture on demand (MOD) release through Amazon.com in region 1 . [2]
