Help. Today I was doing a stupid creative writing thing in my lit class and the professor told us to do that thing where you just write anything for 10 mins. Well I started thinking about this one show that I really liked on MTV. It was one of their sitcoms but didn't have a life track. I remember only a few things about it.

It was an MTV sitcom around 1996-1998. The main characters were two guys, one was tall and goofy, the other was normal and a chubby girl. I think she worked in an office. They were all friends. It was shot to look kind of like an indie movie and had that feel. It was set in what appeared to be Seattle or somewhere in Canada. I know. That makes no sense!

I know that isn't very much to go on but this has been driving me crazy today and I figured someone on this forum might now it. Are there any other people that liked this show? If you don't know the name, can you think of any sites that might be able to help. Is there some kind of site devoted to old MTV shows? I remember there was online devoted to old Nick shows. What a walk down memory lane. Anyway, thanks in advance.

there was an MTV cartoon sitcom kinda like what you described that was on around that time period...i think it was called "downtown".

was it apartment 2F? austin stories?

I'm going to check those out. "Downtown" and "Austin Stories" both sound familar. Reall doubting "Apartment 2F". Thanks.

I just looked it up and "Downtown" was good but it was animated. It was kind of strange.

I'm pretty sure it was "Austin Stoires" but I can't find any info on TvTome.com. Apparently it last only two months. Suck! Here is the cast.

Laura House - Laura
Howard Kremer - Howard
Brad "Chip" Pope - Chip

They had the same name as their charcthers. Very cool!

"Austin Stories"
The story of three friends - Laura , A newspaper columnist, Howard, a homeless slacker, and Chip, a misdirected career-vagabond, - and their misadventures together.

Was that the show where one of the guys had the nick name 'diapes' cuz he smelled like a diaper? That's all I really remember about it.

That sounds like "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place" to me.
