New tonight: Living in Your Car – season 2 premiere

Living in Your Car continues to tell the darkly humourous riches to rags story of Steve Unger (John Ralston), a corrupt business mogul who was once viewed as the embodiment of success, but is now widely looked upon with contempt and pity. After alienating anyone and everyone, including his own family, with his hijinks in Season 1, Season 2 picks up with Steve under house arrest in his parents’ home, falsely accused of hiding money from his former company, and hatching a plan to get out of trouble. Steve soon learns that his lawyer and best friend Neil Stiles (Colin Cunningham) has sold his luxury sedan and replaced it with an RV, complete with kitchen and shower, pronouncing it to be Steve’s new home. Once Steve frees himself from his legal problems, he moves into his new mobile home and looks to start again.

Living in Your Car upgrades for season 2

From Greg David of TV Guide Canada:

  • Back seat ‘Living’
    Now, he’s moved on and moved up. Season 2 could be renamed Living in Your RV, as Steve has upgraded to a larger house on wheels. Not that it was his choice; Steve’s best friend and lawyer Neil Stiles (Colin Cunningham) sold the Rolls and replaced it with the RV. It may not be pretty, but it is more functional, offering both Steve and Ralston, the actor who plays him, more room to move around. Read more.

Call Me Fitz crude, classy, curiously Canadian

From Michael Simpson of Cinemaspy.com:

  • Call Me Fitz has Crudity, Class and Something Curiously Canadian
    There is a quirkiness about Canadian sitcoms that makes them different from their US cousins in a way that is hard to pin down. That kind of quirkiness abounds in Call Me Fitz, an adult comedy on HBO Canada and recently released on DVD by eOne about a used car salesman who finds himself partnered with his conscience made-flesh after a car accident.
