About Zits

At its heart, Zits is about living with a teenager in the house.

Seventeen-year-old Jeremy Duncan is sentenced to spend this stretch of his life with his parents, Connie and Walt Duncan. He is an intelligent and kind person, and also a maddeningly frustrating work-in-progress for Walt and Connie. Two things can be true at once.
