Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist (1995 - 2002)

Ben entertains a business venture that he knows will bring home the bacon: raising pot-bellied pigs--at home.

Dr. Katz is down in the mouth about his less-than-social life after Ben tells him that they're spending too much time together.

Katz goes to an open-mic night to sing, play guitar and embarrass Ben.

After a checkup shows that he's a prime candidate for a heart attack, Dr. Katz asks Stanley and Laura to help him shape up.

In the never-ending struggle to help his son grow up, Dr. Katz suggests that if Ben had his own car, jobs--and dates--might naturally follow.
