Synopsis

This episode introduces our motley handi-capable crew and their bizarre living arrangement. Reilly, an able-bodied drunk, is hit by a car, and finds himself a quadriplegic drunk. The guilt-ridden driver, wealthy Mort Bromberg, buys Reilly the mansion next to his own, much to the horror of Mort's social climbing wife Liz. Reilly fills his new home with other differently-abled roommates- Fontaine, Lefty and Blazer. In the process, we meet Reilly's support system: girlfriend Franny, gay physical therapist Spalding, politically correct counselor Debbie Golden, barkeep Griz and the lovingly vengeful Sister Butch Johnson. Reilly makes a shaky vow to stay sober, and we're off&

Production notes

Produced entirely with Flash animation.

Cartoonist John Callahan, the creator and executive producer of this black comedy, was himself paralyzed by a car accident at age 21.

With animators in Toronto, Melbourne and Perth able to access materials from a shared Web site, work on the series was able to progress around the clock. Animators in Canada and Australia worked with elements stored on a designated database, and individual scenes were developed instantaneously by both the Australian and Canadian directors.
