Is Fox run by monkeys with no sense of humor? Because that would explain why they canceled such a brilliantly funny series. I never got to see this on TV, instead I shelled out $60 for the DVD, money well spent as it turns out. The series follows the adventures of Jack Bourdain as he tries to make a name for himself again at Nolita. The series is filled with great episodes including "Rabbit Test" where instead of getting pre-killed rabbits Nolita receives a load of live ones, and someone has to kill 'em, "The Robbery" Showing Nolita trying to recover after a armed robbery decimates their business and "Let's Do Brunch" where the staff are forced to do brunch, a meal that's frequented by infants and old people. The whole cast is fantastically funny, but my personal favorite is Nicholas Brendon (Xander Harris from Buffy) as Seth the baker, but the entire cast deliver stand out performances that should still be going to this day. When you get a chance, write an angry letter to fox and tell them to give this show another go.
