About
This Space for Rent is a Canadian dramedy on CBC starring Dov Tiefenbach that premiered on January 4, 2006 as a 'special' CBC pilot as part of its "Comedy Week". Tiefenbach plays Lucky Carroway, a recent university graduate and writer who finds that life after university is not as perfect as it might seem. The show begins shortly after his valedictorian speech, when his world comes crashing down after his first book is rejected by his literary agent. His life becomes worse as his arch-nemesis becomes a published author who appears in "Vancouver Magazine's" top 10 writers list. He becomes a recluse who constantly wears his graduation robe and plays video games all day. However, he quickly recovers by writing a vicious 'letter to the editor' to Vancouver Magazine where he decries the selection of his arch-nemesis as a top 10 writer. This letter angers so many readers of the magazine that they offer him a job as an anonymous "Hate Male" article writer. He lives in downtown Vancouver in a flat with several friends. Emily Hampshire plays a recent law school graduate named Iona Goldenthal, a binge drinker who must deal with the chauvinistic world of law. Rainbow Sun Francks plays a recent graduate named Barnaby Sharpe who majored in economics and Russian literature. He fails his first audition and ends up working at a Jar Heads, a Starbucks parody, as a "coffee jerk". Kea Wong plays Rumour Wong, a medical intern and Lucky's girlfriend, who must deal with Lucky's mental breakdown and reclusive nature. Jason Bryden plays Elliot Hayden, a mutual gay friend who speaks Mandarin and frequents Chinatown. He teaches English to immigrant children and acts as a foil to the rest of the characters.

Pear-Shaped World
Meet LUCKY CARROWAY, recent college-graduate and all-around great guy. Watch as the first-day of the rest of his life turns ugly as he loses his literary agent, his shot at greatness, and his will to live. One month has passed and LUCKY has officially become a shut-in. His steady diet of cigarettes, television, and sarcasm has made a profound dent in any potential he was showing as a young novelist of the times. He has elevated the in-animate neon pig sign ("PINKY") next-door to the level of a prized confidante. And his dwindling sense of selfworth is alienating the only thing he has left: his friends.
Stain'd
When LUCKY and BARNABY get in an argument about whose turn it is to do the laundry, both parties plant their feet in the ground and refuse to give in. As the days go on and clothing begins to wear thin, the tested friendship becomes fodder for LUCKYs newest column about "The Stains of Life: those problems (and people) that we can't seem to wash out."
Elvis Kwan Blows
The entire city of Vancouver has Olympic Fever, and a sizeable increase in the price of everything from parking to a cup of coffee, has LUCKY fuming. Searching for a way to channel his anger, LUCKY settles on his next column: "Why I hate the Olympics and everything to do with them."
