Pilot

As would-be tow truck driver Eddie struggles to come up with the cash to repair his ailing truck, Broncula, his roommate Malcolm readies an audition tape he hopes will land him a radio sportscasting job. Just as Malcolm is settling down to tape his play-by-play of a televised basketball game, Eddie notices a commercial featuring get-rich-quick pitchman Bill Fontaine. Certain that Fontaine is the answer to his prayers, Eddie is determined to attend his seminar. However, as Malcolm insists he has no interest in Fontaine, Eddie's attempt to improve their own television ends in disaster. Left without a TV to complete his audition tape, Malcolm heads for Kelly's Bar and Restaurant in hopes of seeing the game there. But when he's denied the chance to watch the game because Tim, a burly regular patron, doesn't want his studying to be disturbed, Malcolm is left with nothing to do. So after unsuccessfully trying to get a date with Kelly's lovely new waitress, Holly, he agrees to join Eddie at the seminar, hoping to win the new TV being offered as a door prize. Once they've arrived, it doesn't take long for Eddie to realize that nothing is free when it comes to Fontaine and his racket. However, Malcolm isn't in any mood to leave once he's gotten a look at Fontaine's voluptuous assistant. Making it clear to everyone that the seminar is a rip-off, Eddie incites the crowd to a near-riot, one that ends with him and Malcolm being given a TV just so they will leave. Finally, even though the new set isn't quite what he imagined, Eddie settles in to watch as Malcolm tries to finish his tape.
