In the season one finale, Doc Ali's two-month boot camp comes to a close and Scott ends his "graduation party" by committing to Renee and in turn, Renee surprises Scott with the big one- revealing that she's pregnant. Thus, season two finds Scott struggling to come to terms with impending fatherhood.

Scott's friends, especially Johnny V., will also have learn to live with these many changes in his life. The new series goes into production this a Fall and is slated to run with nine episodes-six 30-minute episodes and three 1-hour episodes in early 2008, most likely.
