Sep 26, 1982 · Dick Van Dyke is the Drop-Out Father in this lighthearted TV movie. A successful but unsatisfied insurance executive, Van Dyke decides one day to kick over the traces. As his wife (Mariette Hartley) and family listen in fascinated horror, our hero announces his plans to move from the suburbs to a Manhattan loft, there to "find himself."
Problem is, no-one but his youngest daughter seems willing to give his new outlook on life a try. As Van Dyke and his daughter move into a small apartment in what some might call a "bad" neighborhood in the city, his wife and remaining children stay right where they are, convinced he's gone nuts.
