Series from 1996
Apparently opposites do attract. Malcolm and Eddie are as different as one can imagine. Nevertheless, they're best friends who manage to be roommates …
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.
After Eddie breaks Malcolm's couch, Eddie offers to buy a new couch at a furniture store, the owner he met while at work. Malcolm is convinced it costs too much. But Eddie is persuaded by the store's unscrupulous salesman.
With Eddie's towing business really taking off, Malcolm suggests he try radio ads to capitalize on the success. In fact, things are going so well that he is approached by a local tow truck legend, Tow Tom, about merging.
With his tow truck Broncula in the shop, Eddie needs another $600 to get it back on the road. Unable to loan him the cash, Malcolm suggests he find another job, causing him to beg Kelly to let him work at the restaurant.
During a day on which he seems particularly unflappable, Malcolm announces that he's finally being given his chance as a substitute disc jockey on the station's all-night show.
Though upset over a change in the numbers they agreed on, Malcolm's reservations vanish when Eddie's last minute picks win the lottery. While expecting to be millionaires, they discover the prize is being split.
