Raising Miranda was a television series aired on CBS in 1988 as part of its 1988 89 United States network television schedule fall lineup . Raising Miranda was the story of Donald Marshack James Naughton , a Racine, Wisconsin contractor who suddenly found himself a single parent when his wife Bonnie had abandoned him and their 15 year old daughter, Miranda Royana Black , in order to go and find herself . Despite this rather grim premise, the show was billed as a situation comedy , the humor being derived from undomestic Donald now being forced to serve as both father and mother to a teenage girl. Bryan Cranston played Donald s brother in law, Russell. Audiences apparently found the premise a little too grim and the program lasted only two months.
