Comedy pilot for a series that never emerged. The story of Michael and Allan Radford, two adopted and unlikely brothers – one of Jewish and the other of Irish ancestry – who picks up their lives together in San Francisco after many years of separation. In the pilot, Michael moves his family from Bronx to San Francisco, where he sets up housekeeping in Allan’s spacious bachelor apartment.
