LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12 (UPI) -- WE tv says it has ordered six, 1-hour episodes of "Sinbad's Family Affair," a series showcasing the lives of U.S. comedian Sinbad and his family.
"Fifteen years ago, Sinbad was at the top of his game -- hit sitcom, successful talk show, a promising movie career and the perfect family," the cable network said in a synopsis. "And then it all went away. TV shows were canceled, the film roles dried up, and he and his college sweetheart got divorced. For many people, it would end there … . But Sinbad is doing it all over, and this time he's doing it right. He fired his agent, kicked his 30-plus person entourage off the payroll and kept his focus on his original passion: stand-up comedy. He remarried his ex-wife Meredith and moved back into their original home. Their children Paige, 25, and Royce, 22, are working to build their own careers, but they haven't stopped tapping dad for financial support."
