Step by Step (TV series) Set in a substantially fictionalized version of Port Washington, Wisconsin, the series begins with Frank Lambert, a divorced contractor with three children, John Thomas (who went by the nickname J.T.), Alicia (who went by the nickname, Al, in accordance to her tomboyish personality), and Brendan, and Carol Foster, a divorced beautician who also has three children, Dana, Karen, and Mark. Both resided in Port Washington with their children, but met while vacationing separately in Jamaica, where they impulsively get married after a whirlwind courtship.
