Szysznyk (Pronounced SIZ-nik) is an American television series produced by Paramount Network Television.

Plot

Retired Marine Nick Szysznyk is a supervisor at a Washington DC community center.[1]

The ongoing punchline of the show was that people meeting Szysznyk for the first time almost invariably mispronounce his surname. In one episode, a detective called him "Sneeze-wick".
