César Costa plays a fictionalized version of himself, the head of a middle-high class family who happens to be a single father, hence the name of the show. He has two sons and a daughter: Miguel (Gerardo Quiroz), the eldest, Alejandra (Edith Márquez) and Cesarín (Luis Mario Quiroz), the youngest. They have a strong relationship with their maid Gumara (Aurora Alonso). They live in an apartment where they befriend their apartment building's handyman known as "Pocholo" (José Luis Cordero) and Juan (Juan Peláez/Octavio Galindo), their womanizing neighbor who repeatedly gets others into trouble.
During its six-year run the show had more than 60 guests from among popular stars of the era.
In 1989 Costa won the TVyNovelas Award for Best Comedic Performance for Papá soltero; the show was also nominated twice for Best Comedy Program but did not win.[citation needed]
In 2018 Costa told El Universal that he planned to revive the series in movie theaters and on stage.[1]
