Jon Katz is a man having a midlife crisis. His wife moved out of the house because he was becoming too distant. Their daughter Emma still lives with him, and, also, their dog Stanley.
However, one day, Emma notices a problem with Stanley. Jon, Emma and Stanley go to the veterinarian, where Stanley is diagnosed a heart condition, mainly because his heart is beating slower than it should be, and the vet is also surprised by the fact that the dog can run at all (after his favourite blue ball). Jon tries to keep playing with Stanley, even tempting him with the ball, but, the dog does not have the strength to go after her anymore, and just keeps lying on the floor.
Eventually, Stanley dies. Thus, a new dog named Devon is given to Jon, and the craziness of Devon begins...
On Thursday July 8, 2010, Jeff Bridges was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries LESS
