The series follows Vinnie Bassett, proprietor of a pop culture memorabilia store who only takes breaks to read comic books and play video games. His bachelor life comes to a halt when he assumes guardianship of his incredibly intelligent and mature nephew, Wendell. They soon find that 12-year-old Wendell may be just the parent Vinnie needs.
When Wendell gets caught up with a snobby group of Magnet school kids, Vinnie struggles to be a better disciplinarian at the urging of his judgmental father.
