Plot – David Spritz is the weatherman of a local television station in Chicago, Channel 6. For many people, he's more than just someone who forecasts sun, rain or snow: he's also a moving target. Regularly Spritz is hit with soda pop, malts or food by jealous fans, who have with him a love and hate relationship. David wants nothing more than respect, especially from his own father, the award-winning author Robert Spritzel. David also wants his former wife to love him again, his daughter to be happy and his son to stay out of troubles.
