Kim Zimmer’s role in the Hallmark Channel’s Freshman Father, with former Designing Women star Annie Potts will air on June 5th , and here is the synposis and how La Zimmer fits into the mix!

John Patton (Seeley), the small town high school prom king, star quarterback and class valedictorian is all set to start Harvard in the fall when his steady girlfriend, Kathy (Britt Irvin, “The Assistants”), tells him she is pregnant. The couple makes the difficult decision to marry, and Kathy agrees to follow John to school. Then, when the compromises and responsibilities of young parenthood wear on her, Kathy leaves her son, Adam, and John behind to return to her small town. Struggling now with his classes, a new job and taking care of his son by himself, John wonders how he will do it all. His luck improves a bit when he finds an apartment and his new manager, Dorothy (Potts), becomes his surrogate mom. But then John realizes he’s failed a calculus exam after an all-nighter taking care of Adam and he decides to throw in the towel and start packing for home. It’s only when an unlikely mentor appears – the hard-nosed Dean Frost (Zimmer) – that John gets a second chance and the support he needs to continue his dream.
