Perhaps their strikingly different personalities make the relationship between detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles so effective.

Together, the best friends have forged a quirky and supportive relationship; they drop the protective shield in each other's company, and combine their expertise to solve Boston's most complex cases.

The twenty-third and final episode aired on August 24, 2004. Show number 24 was taped but never aired, after one of the unsuspecting guests, James March, threatened to sue Comedy Central.

The existence of Channel 101 led to a show on VH-1 called Acceptable.TV. Director/Actor Drew Hancock wrote a mini-show for Acceptable.TV about the dangers of swords, but VH-1 hated it so it was never produced. Now, in the post-ATV era, Hancock has brought the show to the Channel 101 audience to great success. Sit back and enjoy as Trip Fisk warns you of the dangers of owning swords, and always remember: Don't Fucking Touch Swords.

Ultraforce #1 brought an unprecedented production value to Channel 101, dazzling the audience with spandex, lasers, vehicles and locations. By episode 3, Gourley and Carter became victims of their own quality, unable to keep up with the rigorous schedule and relatively high budget (some episodes had a budget of up to 500 dollars). #3 is a tear-jerking finale, and Ultraforce will forever stand as a home video hero.
