Must see pilot to series, 13 April 2004
Author: phbalanced

Whether or not you're seeing the pilot before the series or trying to catch this segment in between episodes, it's a must-see for all TPB fans, and though only about 70 min. in length and shot entirely in black and white, the pilot centers around Julian & Ricky, pals from high school. Story is told from the viewpoint of Julian who thinks he has only 5 days left to live after learning his fate from a phone psychic. Ricky balks at the news and the two guys go on with their everyday activities which includes their work as self-employed pet exterminators. This is something not mentioned during the series; the boys are looking for higher profit ventures. The relationship between Lucy & Ricky and Lucy & Julian is explained. Some missing characters which haven't yet been developed include Bubbles, park supervisor Jim Lahey and his pear-shaped shirtless henchman Randy. Actor Patrick Roach appears as a different character. Minor characters Cory & Trevor are introduced and return as series regulars.
