What's News (pilot episode)

Jonathan P. What (Mike Pesses) never expected that his dead grandfather would will his failing TV station to him! Set in San Francisco, Jonathan has to turn his new TV station KWUT around with the "help" of former girlfriend and headstrong sportscaster Joanna Montana (* *), scattered accountant Todd Tiffany (Sean Hart) , wacky station technician Krizwan (Kris Holcomb), and the station's sassy secretary, Minorah T. Pouchouté (Jason Eason), who always has something to say. If Jonathan isn't able to make a profit, the local media baron, John-Bennet Ramsey (Ben Larson) will foreclose on the property and Jonathan will lose his grandfather's station!

Also helping Jonathan is Richard Wayne de la Véga (Tim Heiderich) a news broadcaster who's as professional as he is pompous and Jennifer Tiffany (Leah Sprecher), a ditzy blond who can hardly remember her lines when sitting behind the news desk!

Myles Nye guest stars as the bike messenger, Ozzie.
