Downtown

Downtown is the story of nerdy, toy-boy Alex, and his adventures while living in his first apartment in downtown New York. While having a rather unexciting job in a copy store, his life is frequently made more exciting by his wild partying sister Chaka, who often takes advantage of Alex's apartment to crash after clubbing. Also wandering in and out of his life is his despondent best friend Jen, his dream goth-girl Serena, disgusting ladies-man Goat, and Chaka's squad of high school friends - dreamy Mecca, tagger Matt, and wannabe Casanova Fruity.

A truly one-of-a-kind show, Downtown has been overlooked and under-appreciated since it's creation. As usual, MTV cancelled one of it's best shows after only one season, so it has sadly faded into obscurity. I'd advise you to grab any opportunities to see this show that come up.

It's and '99 recap of the decade. Almost is a parody for the 90s its self. But nostalgic none the less. Cool animation, everyday bs situation, fun trip back to the last great decade.

The way I see things, "Downtown" is a beautiful rare gem. I gotten into this show earlier this morning & I enjoyed watching it so much that I would wanna watch it forever. I especially like how realistic the dialogue amongst the characters sound, the animation style is beautiful, the episodes are interesting & above all else, it's really underrated due to the fact that MTV cancelled it after 13 episodes for unknown reasons. It is also a shame I was NEVER alive to watch the show back when MTV used to air it but I can honestly say that I am so happy I got a chance to try "Downtown" during this Easter & I regret absolutely nothing when it comes to watching it.

I'm not going to accuse of MTV of being stupid, whats the point? Its like saying the sun is hot, we all know it.

I love Downtown, there's nowhere near enough info and praise for the show on the web, yes there were only 13 episodes and OK you have a point that its a pretty old show but it deserves it all the same.

Someone said that there is not a single bad episode, I agree, and to add to this there is not a single episode which is not great.

The most realistic characters in a TV show in a very long time and their animated, go figure.

Dang, ten lines of text?

This show is so addicting.... the main characters seem real and the animation is good. Sadly MTV isn't giving it too much vibe.... there are no sites out there for it.... go watch it and have a good ass time!
