E1Hard Laughs FeaturetteTitus confirms what that many of the plots barely got network approval. Chris had to coax them into the episodes by explaining how funny they could be. Very few shows on network television have ventured this far in terms of the kinds of stories they do. The people in this show are dysfunctional and real. There is no weekly reconcilliation at the end of each episode. In fact, it's lucky if the characters' situations aren't worse off by the end than they were at the beginning. - Homecoming Part 1E3
Homecoming Part 1Eighteen years ago, Titus ended with Christopher being put away in a mental hospital following his nervous breakdown over his mother's suicide. After being released from his eight-year stay (caused by Dave foolishly trying to spring Titus from the mental hospital), Titus discovers that his cars have been sold to keep the shop from going under, his father has gone to Mexico to party, and Erin has fallen for Tommy.
