Parker Lewis Can't Lose! 

A FANTASTIC show on Fox in the early '90's. Basically an anti-90210. Came on right after the Simpsons so most cable broadcasters did not have Fox yet. It will never be on DVD due to all the music rights from different companies. Sad. If you like the cut scenes from "Scrubs", You will LOVE this show.
"Dude, did you see "Parker Lewis Can't Lose!" last night?"
"No, I don't have Fox yet. I watched 'Eerie, Indiana'."
