I just found an 8-gig torrent of every episode (2 whopping seasons) of a failed sitcom called Get A Life. It starred Chris Elliot, who used to do Letterman skits in the 80s. He was also in Cabin Boy.
Anyway, the show is from around 1990. I used to watch it but I was only 14 then, and I liked it but then it disappeared; if you watch it or know about it, then the reason why it failed is easy to see. Not that it was a bad show: it was just totally out of place on prime time TV.
It's about a 30 year old guy who lives with his parents and delivers newspapers on his bicycle. But there is a lot more to the show; a lot of the premises are completely out-of-the-bounds-of-reality surreal, yet they are presented in very matter of fact ways which makes them even more surreal.
Anyway, the show is buried in obscure TV castaway oblivion, I don't even think you can get it on DVD. But now I'm happy to be able to watch it again, and I wonder if I'll like it at 33 like I did when I was 14.
