Season 1

1957, and The Lester Guy Show is about to premiere live, with a dramatic kitchen scene planned as the show's climactic moment. A mishap with the sound effects board and a comical head injury reduces the kitchen scene to farce, redeemed by starlet Betty Hudson's tender rendition of a song "The Bird in the Tree".

Because of Betty's incredible popularity from the debut show, Lester convinces Professor Answer to compete against Betty and her seventh grade teacher in a rigged quiz show.

Sylvia Hudson, a class A bitch & Betty's sister, appears on the show and insults Mr. Peanuts the network's children show star. Betty gets the crew and the viewing public to bring Mr. Peanut's spirits up.
