The Screen Guide

A darkly comic animation television series inspired by the work of the acclaimed cartoonist John Callahan. QUADS tells the story of Reilly O'Reilly, a foul-mouthed drunk with a generous heart who gets run over by a millionaire and rendered a quadriplegic. Receiving a mansion as settlement for his injuries, Reilly fills it with 'people less fortunate than himself' and together the handicapped anti-heroes form a dysfunctional little family of sorts, enthusiastically engaging in the pursuit of the same things everybody wants: money, sex and the occasional humiliation of their enemies.
