Back in the late 90's, two producers came together to make one of the best (albeit short lived) animated series' ever. Two brothers move from Wyoming to the city, and we start from there...

Going on from that, it accurately portrayed what it was like to be a teenager of Generation X+1. The ADD, the apathy, the bullshit and the commercialism...It was all there. If you're a guy around 20 or so right now, you'd probably see a lot of truth in it.

But, even with that, it had a lot to go. A whole lot of funny stuff happened in every episode. Arsony caused by masturbation, snakes eating babies, whatever you could think of could happen.

...but sadly, it was cancelled early on.

...then Cartoon Network picked it up for a short while, then dropped it.

:-\

DVD set, where are you?

The only episode I got a really good laugh out of was the one where Kevin got that Valkrie MMORPG game. I was going through my once-a-year or so bouts of playing Diablo II for every waking moment at the time, so it sort of struck a chord for me. :lol

...and the music was done by Cake! Cake is great!

I was the original champion of this show when it first appeared! Where were you then!?

I love it, I'd choose to watch it and it's small amount of eps before any other show on TV.

Couple of familiar names in there, eh?

She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
She doesn't care,
Just as long as his ship's coming in.
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
If they laugh, they make money.
He's got a gold watch.
She's got a silk dress
And healthy breasts
That bounce on his Italian leather sofa.
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's a good man.
She doesn't care,
Just as long as she still has her friends.
She doesn't care
Whether or not he's an island.
If they laugh, they make money.
He's got a gold watch.
She's got a silk dress
And healthy breasts
That bounce on his Italian leather sofa.

She's got a serrated edge
That she moves back and forth.
It's such a simple machine.
She doesn't have to use force.
When she gets what she wants
She puts the rest on a tray
In a zip-loc bag.

It's such a simple machine.
She doesn't have to use force.
When she get what she wants
She puts the rest on a tray
In a zip-loc bag in the freezer.
