After the pilot was approved, the series was bought by KTMA, local access channel 24 in Winsconsin. Though it was very cheap and low-rate, it was funny. If it hadn't been funny, it definitely wouldn't have made it to season 10! 21 episodes were made for KTMA, but then it was moved to comedy central.
