The series stars Alan Ruck, Jerry Levine, Heather Locklear, and Hallie Todd as four young Hollywood writers renting a house together.

In the pilot, four young writers—brothers Charlie and Jack Davis, Alex Burton, and Kate Griffin—land jobs in Hollywood at the hidden-camera television show Here's Looking at You.

Charlie and Kate spend their Saturday nights playing Monopoly, so Jack and Alex encourage them to place personal ads to pep up their social lives.

Charlie fears for his life when he finds out that his blind date Donna is the wife of accused mobster Joey "The Icepick" Montaine.

Charlie, Alex, Kate, and Jack stay up late to tape some new ideas for Here's Looking at You and start doing exaggerated, unflattering impressions of Dawn.

After the roommates agree to a truce following a massive practical-joke war, Alex and Kate find a burglar in the living room and think it's Charlie and Jack's final prank and treat the man like a guest.

The show's first guest is investigative author Jerry Slaughter, whom they lose moments before he is supposed to appear, so Charlie decides to take his place.

Guest starring: Christopher Gartin as Mortie Gallup, David Groh as Jerry Slaughter, Grant Moran as Announcer, and Judd Laurance as Floor Manager Kate's brother sends his son, troublesome 8-year-old Nick, to visit her, then leaves a message that he's too busy to return for his son, and Kate and her roommates suddenly become unlikely full-time parents.

When they start to miss her, Charlie, Alex, and Jack decide to convert the attic into a bedroom for Nick so they'll move back into the beach house.

Kate, Charlie, Alex, and Jack agree to babysit Dick's nerdy son Sam, but are unprepared for the hypochondriacal boy who arrives with a virtual pharmacy in his suitcase.

Kate, Alex, Charlie, and Jack go to bring Nick back home, but decide to stay in line and camp out for the night while they're there.
