In 2001, MTV moved further and further away from showing music videos. Besides so-called "Reality TV," they had two animated TV Series that were not for little kids; 1)Daria, which spun off from Beavis and Butt-head in 1997, and 2)Undergrads.

This was about four friends who try to adjust to college life, all of which were voiced by the same man, creator Pete Williams.
This image(from Episode 1.01)is of Gimpy getting one of his minions to spy on Rocko disguised as a California Highway Patrol motorcycle cop. That cardboard cutout motorcycle looks like a Harley-Davidson to me. Ignore the N.Y.P.D. inscription on the saddlebag. It may be a cardboard cutout, but it plays a role. I'd say two stars maximum.
This is a Volkswagen "New Beetle" driven by Dan's parents. Dan is this friend of Rob Brody, Crougar, and Jessie's who happens to be a close friend of Nitz. Episode 1.13, One star.
Generic truck. I originally thought it was an International Harvester Loadstar. Upon closer examination, I tried to tell myself it was an early-1960's Studebaker.
That was driven by one of the two Dave's(both of which are supporting characters). But like the VW, it was seen in Episode 1.13, and is nothing more than a background vehicle, so one star.
The vehicles I wanted to get, included a college shuttle bus in Episode 1.07, that I thought was going to be built on a van chassis of one of the big 3, but even though I didn't stop the DVD in time, I could see it was too generic. It would rate two stars if it had been identifiable. There was also a scene from Episode 1.13, where Jessie gets out of her hatchback to reprimand Nitz. I originally thought it was a Volvo for some reason, but now I think that might've been generic too. It would've rated two stars if it wasn't.
Well, I took what I could from that. I made a promise, kept it, and it still turned out like crap. If none of the administrators decide to load them up, the best thing I can say, is at least I got this title off my chest.
