In Case of Emergency is an American half-hour sitcom television series shown on ABC in the United States. The series follows a group of high school acquaintances whose lives have not turned out as they hoped. It premiered on January 3, 2007, at 9:30 pm and ended on April 11, 2007. The pilot episode was directed by Jon Favreau and the cast included Jonathan Silverman, David Arquette, Lori Loughlin, Kelly Hu, and Greg Germann.
ABC gave early renewal notices to several of its series on March 21, 2007 but In Case of Emergency was not one of them.
On April 12, 2007, ABC announced that the show had been officially cancelled, leaving one episode unaired, which has since been broadcast internationally.
A series of personal emergencies reunites high school classmates Harry, Jason, Sherman, and Kelly: Harry encounters Kelly at a Korean "happy endings" massage parlor and the two flee when her cop boyfriend busts in, diet guru Sherman freaks out when his wife leaves him, taking all his possessions, and Jason ends up at the hospital after trying to kill himself.
Kelly's cop boyfriend, Frank, catches Harry helping her move her things out of his place. Sherman's staff refuse to help him as his reputation goes down the drain. Jason starts volunteering at the hospital in the hope of seducing Dr. Joanna.
Sherman and Harry sneak into the ashram where Sherman's ex-wife is now staying to retrieve her. Kelly reveals that she accidentally killed her husband during a game of golf. Jason tries to convince Dr. Joanna's ailing grandmother to accept medical treatment so Joanna can postpone her wedding.
Jason tries to avoid a process server. Harry gets angry with his boss and quits his job. Sherman starts wearing a disguise to avoid hostile former fans.
Faced with going to jail, Jason ponders cutting a deal by ratting on his CEO, who also happens to be his Uncle Henry and his mother Donna's favorite brother. He asks Harry to help him convince his mother, but Donna immediately starts flirting with Harry, leading to a deep, passionate kiss. Meanwhile, Kelly takes Sherman to a strip club to help get him over his wife and introduces him to Summer.
Jason discovers Donna and Harry's affair, which makes him rethink his love for Joanna. Meanwhile, Sherman has trouble maintaining his diet and Dylan asks Kelly to be his girlfriend.
