The Blanten, Booker and Hayden World Wide Advertising Agency on Madison Avenue in New York City was the setting for this CBS comedy.
The agency’s art director, Will Hennessy (Jon Tenney), dreamed of becoming an artist and getting into the Yale School of Arts (he applied but was rejected).
Will worked with assistants Dale (Elizabeth Anne Smith) and Jody (Timothy Fall), crafty agency veteran Jack (Seymour Cassel) and his ex-girlfriend, copywriter Liz Gibson (Lauren Graham).
Office suck-up Ron Nash (Jason Beghe) was a two-faced, back-stabbing, obsequious creep.
Other regular characters included CEO Bobby McDermott (Terry Kiser, pictured) – whose main objective in life was to say as few words as possible and communicate mainly via body language -and his hard-nosed second-in-command, single mother Zoe Hellstrom (Wendie Malick). Nancy (Winifred Freeman) was Zoe’s secretary.
Six episodes were produced, but only five aired before CBS cancelled the show.
