The story

"Rainbow" Randolph Smiley hosts a popular children's television show on the fictional children's TV network KidNet called The Rainbow Randolph Show, with his friendly onscreen persona masking his alcoholism, emotional instability, and criminal behavior. His career ends after he is arrested by the FBI at Patsy's Warehouse for accepting bribes; his show is cancelled, and he is evicted from KidNet's corporate penthouse, leaving him homeless and destitute. Ordered by the network's chair to find a replacement with a clean public image, executive Marion Stokes selects the naive Sheldon Mopes and his character Smoochy the Rhino.
