On May 7, 2014, Fox canceled the series after one season. ==Cast and characters== * Seth Green as Eli Sachs, Warner's business partner. He is portrayed as the "creative" end of the video game business. While Warner is often seen in a tie, Eli generally wears T-shirts and sweatshirts. He is a lothario and is often made fun of when he fails to have sex with women. He maintains a flirtatious relationship with his assistant Veronica. Eli also maintains a tumultuous relationship with his father David, who he feels eats all his food and stinks up his bathroom. He is also seemingly very fond of his maid, Edna, as a surrogate mother. * Giovanni Ribisi as Warner Whittemore, Eli's business partner. He is often portrayed to be the "business" end of the video game business. He often loses control of his emotions and maintains an estranged relationship with his wife, Camilla.

He left Eli as a child and returns to live in Eli's apartment where he is generally seen sitting on the couch, eating, watching TV, or fighting with Edna. A recurring joke in the series is his intestinal problems. He is lethargic, sardonic, cold, and grumpy towards most characters, but has a friendship with Crawford. David seemingly does not care for Eli, but is shown that he is supportive for his son, such as stealing comic books for Eli, marrying Edna to keep her from being deported, and taking a job as a mall Santa to buy Eli a Christmas present. As revealed in "Have a Heart... Attack", he is 65 years old. * Martin Mull as Crawford Whittemore, Warner's dad. He is portrayed as a failed businessman, but continues to try to launch his career.
