TV show description:
This animated series was created by (and features) Steve Dildarian, a Clio-winning copywriter from the advertising world.

Living in New York City, Tim (Steve Dildarian) is a self-conscious and unassuming guy who works in a non-descript job for a big corporation named Omincorp. Though he means well, Tim often finds himself caught in bizarre and very embarrassing situations. For example, when Tim attends a wedding, he ends up groping the bride’s 80-year-old grandmother.

He works with his best friends, Stu (Nick Kroll) and Rodney (Matt Johnson). Stu lives for the simple things in life — free food at the office, women with large breasts, and Giants games. He often acts out of instinct without any regard for the consequences of his actions. Rodney is interested in cologne, hockey, and porn. He’s also the assistant to their nameless boss.

“The Boss” (Peter Giles) is one of the most prominent African-American business leaders in the country, has a shrew mind for business, and typically doesn’t feel remorse for his actions. Tim is his frequent pawn.

Tim’s girlfriend is Amy (MJ Otto), a young lady who just wants to be in a normal relationship. She’s a type-A personality, makes more money than Tim, and has a better class of friends. She’s very competitive and finds herself making excuses for her consistently embarrassing boyfriend.

Debbie the Prostitute (Bob Morrow) is an aging hooker who lives in Tim’s neighborhood. She likes Tim for his good heart and believes in him (unlike Amy). Debbie frequently stops by to talk with him and has big dreams of her own. But like Tim, she just can’t seem to get her act together.
