A faithful re-creation of characters created by comics artist / animation writer Evan Dorkin that have appeared in his anthology comic book, 'Dork'.
The one-and-only TV episode of 'Welcome To Eltingville' ran on the Cartoon Network's 'Adult Swim'.
It could have made a great series...

Louis Jordan - Saturday Night Fish Fry (1966)
The host is R&B disc jockey Bill "Hoss" Allen, the house band is The Beat Boys, led by guitarist Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown.
Jordan was 58 at the time, and kicks ass. His appearances on this show were apparently the only time his performances were captured in color.
