The Life and Times of Eddie Roberts

The Life and Times of Eddie Roberts (a.k.a. L.A.T.E.R.) is an American syndicated television sitcom about a college professor and his family. It was intended to be a spoof of soap operas in the same style as Soap and Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, but it failed to get the ratings that the other two shows had; it was canceled after 65 episodes, which had been broadcast five days a week over three months in 1980.
