Jake in Progress is an American sitcom television series broadcast on ABC from March 13, 2005, to January 9, 2006.
The first aired episode reflected the original plan, covering the first half-hour of a date.
Stamos' co-stars in the show are Naomi (Wendie Malick), Jake's boss at the Magnum PR Agency; Adrian (Ian Gomez), Jake's best friend; and Patrick (Rick Hoffman), the performance artist who always appears at the most inopportune times.
However, the network reversed course and announced the show would return as the lead-out from a highly anticipated series, Emily's Reasons Why Not.
The first night of the sitcom pairing fared poorly in the ratings;[1] after one week, ABC immediately scheduled a rerun of The Bachelor during the one-hour block for the following week, putting both shows on indefinite hiatus.
