Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Tony Shalhoub is Ian Stark, a misanthropic horror writer with a penchant for practical jokes. Henry McNeeley, played by Neil Patrick Harris, is obsessive compulsive, afraid of everything, insistent on working when there is work to be done, and Ian's new editor. Their starkly different approaches to work and life clash as they work together, which apparently involves a lot more hanging out than actual writing or editing.They are joined in their hijinks by Ian's typist, Jake Donovan, who's not too bright after years of recreational marijuana use; Maddie Keller, a bartender and college student who somehow has difficulty attracting men; and Henry's girlfriend, Tess Farraday, who is every bit who you would expect to be with an obsessive compulsive, phobia-ridden, super-serious book editor.The show, an NBC Sitcom, ran for a single season, 1999-2000. Despite being both clever and funny, it suffered from clashing styles with Frasier, which followed it in the next time slot, leading to its time-slot bouncing and subsequent cancellation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Christmas Episode | |
| Stark Raving Mad / int_6ef9d3fe | comment |
Christmas Episode: "Christmas Cheerleader" sees Henry and Tess being without family or friends this year, so they go to Ian's party, which is explicitly non-Christmas in nature (much to the irritation of Tess). Meanwhile, Jake tries to work up the nerve to call his Disappeared Dad. | |

Covert Pervert | |
| Stark Raving Mad / int_edfacbac | comment |
Covert Pervert: Henry, which may come as a surprise. Notable incidents include The Grade where he has put a topless picture of his former girlfriend as his screensaver and The Pidgeon where he becomes fixated over Tess' former classmate being a lesbian and having a crush on her (with the two of them meeting again later in the episode). | |
