Clubhouse is a short-lived American drama television series starring Jeremy Sumpter, Dean Cain, Christopher Lloyd, Jennifer Tisdale, Mare Winningham, and Kirsten Storms. Five episodes were broadcast on CBS in fall 2004. CBS broadcast both the high-definition and analog program through its affiliates. Having been shot in high definition, the five episodes that aired on CBS, along with six additional episodes that were not broadcast over CBS' airwaves, were picked up by HDnet in June 2005. The theme song is Our Lives by The Calling.
The series is about a boy who gets his dream job working as a batboy for his favorite major-league baseball team, the fictional New York Empires. Throughout the story, 16-year-old Pete Young (played by Sumpter) goes through normal and not so normal problems of a teenager. Pete's sister (played by Storms) is a rebellious teen who deals with drinking, sex, and drugs.
The basis of the show was the experiences of a batboy for the New York Yankees, Matthew McGough. He graduated from Williams College and Fordham University School of Law, and lives in New York City. His book Bat Boy: My True Life Adventures: Coming of Age with the New York Yankees was published by Doubleday in 2005.
11 episodes were filmed. The first five episodes aired on CBS in the fall of 2004. The five episodes the CBS aired were the Pilot, Breaking the Slump, Chin Music, Trade Talks, and Spectator Interference. In 2005, all 11 episodes were purchased by the HDNet cable channel and were aired.
