This family drama is about the world-famous brain surgeon, Andrew Brown, who decides to relocate his family (which includes his 15-year-old son, Ephram, and his 9-year old daughter, Delia) from the Big Apple to settle in the small hamlet of Everwood, after the death of his beloved wife. When Doctor Brown decides to open his own free clinic in Everwood, most of the town's quirky inhabitants decide that he is crazy. Meanwhile, tension is growing between Doctor Brown and his son. Ephram is angry at his father for the years of neglect that Delia and he have had to suffer, because his father decided to devote more time to his career than his family.

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: 'Everwood'

'Everwood' premiered on the WB on September 16, 2002 (Mondays at nine) and stars Treat Williams as Andrew Brown, Gregory Smith as his son, Ephram, and Vivien Cardone as his daughter, Delia. If you think about it, the titles 'Family Affair' and 'Do Over' can actually be good alternative names for the show, but they're the names of other shows also debuting on the WB in the '02-'03 season.

Answer: 'Greetings From Tucson'

'Greetings From Tucson' premiered on the WB network on September 20, 2002 (Fridays at 9:30). Stars Pablo Santos as David Tiant, Julio Menchoso and Rebecca Creskoff as his parents, and Aimee Garcia as his older sister, Maria. 'Greetings From Tuscon' is one of the lesser advertised new shows on the WB.
