Thirteen episodes of the show were completed, but Fox only showed the first five before pulling the show due to poor ratings. PremiseThe show centers on several teen characters who work and hang out at the mall food court. The main characters are Laz, his 16-year-old angst-ridden and angry stepsister Molly, Laz's best friend Fred, and Laz's new girlfriend Lily. Laz's dad Rick and Molly's mom Michelle also play a large role in the show. They love all of their children, but their clear favorite is the only product of their union: the sweet, perfect, wise 8-year-old Gus (Frankie Ryan Manriquez). Laz and Fred, both 18, have been friends forever. Just out of high school and unsure what they want to do with their lives, they take jobs at a mall food court, at the lame "Yippiee Hot Dogs" run by the always-yelling Mr. Hut (Maz Jobrani). Laz meets the girl of his dreams there, the lovely, strong-willed Lily. Optimistic but not ambitious, Laz cuts a deal with his well-meaning but superficial dad Rick and equally superficial stepmom Michelle which allows Laz to continue living rent-free at home. All he must do is keep an eye on his stepsister, the angry, angst-ridden 16-year-old Molly. Michelle and Rick hope that Laz will help socialize Molly and get her on the right track with the boy she likes: the sweet but awkward Jasper. Cast
EpisodesAn alternate version of the pilot exists, originally titled Related by Family, featuring a different actor, Kurt Doss, playing Gus Lackerson.
DevelopmentOriginally called Related by Family,[1] the show was created by Victor Fresco, who had also created the short-lived sitcom Andy Richter Controls the Universe.[2] However, like Andy Richter Controls the Universe, poor ratings doomed Life on a Stick to quick cancellation. It only aired five low-rated episodes, although the premiere had American Idol for a lead-in. Thirteen episodes were produced. Yasbeck took this role as part of the healing process following the death of her husband John Ritter.[3] A role on Life on a Stick was offered to the then-unknown Charlie Day; he turned it down to continue working on the pilot for what would become It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.[4] References1. ^{{cite news|title=The Austin Chronicle Screens: TV EyeAustin Chronicle |date=March 18, 2005|url= http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/column?oid=oid%3A263102 | work=Austin Chronicle}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Cast, characters skewer 'Life on a Stick'|work=USA Today |date=March 22, 2005|url= https://www.usatoday.com/life/television/reviews/2005-03-22-life-on-a-stick_x.htm | first1=Robert | last1=Bianco | accessdate=May 7, 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.abc.go.com/daytime/theview/episodes/2005/20050314.html |title=The View |accessdate=2007-05-11 |publisher=ABC |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20061030115217/http://www.abc.go.com/daytime/theview/episodes/2005/20050314.html |archivedate = 2006-10-30}} (archived link) 4. ^{{cite news| url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/05/20/charlie-day-merrimack-commencement_n_5360127.html | work=Huffington Post | title=Charlie Day Gave An Epic Commencement Speech At His Alma Mater | date=May 20, 2014}} External links{{wikiquote|Life on a Stick}}
