I'm pretty sure the first season is finished. It's always a little hard to tell with Adult Swim whether they're done or just taking a break. Anyway, the show is a mockumentary like The Office about a family in the Witness Protection Program that moves to New York City to star in a reality show. Not only do they wear masks to hide their faces, they undergo surgery to alter their voices. It's obviously a ridiculous premise, but the show in its normal course isn't usually quite as absurd. Since his wife leaves him pretty much immediately, it's about Jon and how he tries to keep his life together while cameras follow him around and a Russian assassin ruins his life, trying to kill him, accidentally taking out Paul Rudd, becoming more successful with his own reality show. Jon Glaser has always been funny on the other shows he's been on, and he really drives the comedy here. He's skilled at making a complete ass of himself in public without becoming unlikable, and he's put together a pretty entertaining show. I don't know if it's going to keep going or what, but I like it so far.
