Top of the Heap focused on the attempts of two minor Married... with Children characters — Charlie Verducci (Joseph Bologna) and his son Vinnie (Matt LeBlanc) — to get rich. Charlie's "master plan" is for Vinnie to marry into a wealthy family; to this end, the two Chicago slum residents try to get into high society. Mona Mullins (Joey Lauren Adams) is a girl from the Verduccis' neighborhood who has a crush on Vinnie, who tries to fend her off. Alixandra Stone (Rita Moreno) is the manager of a country club, and the object of Charlie's affections.

In some episodes actors from Married... with Children made guest appearances as their characters from the show, thus reinforcing the connection between the two series.

In 1992, there was a continuation of this series entitled Vinnie & Bobby; it also lasted for only seven episodes.

The pilot was episode 20 of the 5th season of Married... with Children.
