As was also the case during his stand-up routine, Mac habitually addressed the audience as "America" for humorous effect. Bernie, who grew up on Chicago's south-side, was a die-hard fan of the White Sox and was seen at Game 1 of the World Series, in a front row seat. This technique was most notably used before an episode during the 2005–2006 season, when Bernie, as himself and wearing a Chicago White Sox cap and jacket, delivered a heartfelt congratulatory message to the baseball organization and its staff on their recent World Series Championship. Many of his most emotional scenes occurred in segments in which Mac, while still in character, broke the ' fourth wall' and talked to the television audience, which he referred to as America. Towards the end of the series, Bryana's long-lost father ( Anthony Anderson) returns and drops by from time to time to help Bernie and Wanda with the kids. A frequent motif of the show was the juxtaposition of Mac's acerbic comments, such as his threats to "bust the (children's) heads 'til the white meat shows," and the deep parental affection he felt towards the trio, which often brought him to the verge of tears during happy moments. Much of the humor in the show was derived from Mac's continual adjustment to and his unique take on parenthood. "In reality, the story is a blend of two real incidents: Mac briefly took in his niece Toya who was an at risk youth and her daughter Monique while a friend of his had to raise her sister's children long-term." The pilot episode, aired on November 14, 2001, set up the basic premise for the series: the character Bernie Mac takes in his sister's children after she enters rehab (a fictional premise taken from one of Mac's stand-up routines which was eventually featured in the 2000 film, The Original Kings of Comedy). In real life, Bernie "Mac" McCullough was married with one daughter Mac's character on the show (a stand-up comedian) was married with no children of his own. The series was loosely based on Mac's stand-up comedy acts.
