Uncle Buck

- Season 1

(2016)

Desperate for a babysitter, Will and Alexis Russell ask Will's brother Buck to watch their three children while they are away on a business trip. Worried about Buck's parenting skills, Will and Alexis return early and instead of coming home to chaos, they end up keeping Buck on as their Manny.

When Maizy has trouble selling Girl Scout cookies, Alexis and Will use different parenting strategies to help. As her parents become lost in their own aproaches, Buck steps in and uses street knowledge to help spike Maizy's sales.

When Alexis feels that a laid-back Buck is not prepared for his first full day of caring for the children, she decides to show him the ropes. Almost immediately, Alexis' organized, by-the-book style clashes with Buck's shortcuts.

Looking to impress a highly-regarded architect at his firm, Will hosts a cocktail party that goes awry when Buck hijacks it.

Miles emulates Buck at school and at home, and gets into trouble for it. A mature Tia helps Buck realize that, now he's their caretaker, he needs to act like a better role model.

A proud Buck brags to his buddies at the bar that he has the nanny gig mastered, but soon a perfect storm of childcare problems has Buck doubting himself.

Will and Alexis come home from the movies to find their house in disarray. In an effort to find out what happened, they interrogate Uncle Buck and each kid individually.

After Tia shows the family an unflattering documentary of the Southside of Chicago where Buck grew up, he recommends taking the family to the annual block party in his old neighborhood.
