Larry (John Goodman) is the lead lion in Siegfried & Roy's Las Vegas show. Larry must attempt to balance his show business with his family life which is not easy, given how often trouble manages to find him. He manages to get through every day however with help from his devoted wife Kate (Cheryl Hines), his children Sierra (Danielle Harris) and Hunter (Daryl Sabara) and his best friend, Snack (Orlando Jones), a gopher. Of substantially less help is his father-in-law, Sarmoti (Carl Reiner), who utterly despises him.
