Kevin develops an appreciation for classic cinema and a friendship with his elderly, openly gay neighbor, Wally, who is the projectionist at the revival theater. Everyone is thrilled when a movie Wally directed back in the '50s, starring his life-partner Gus, resurfaces. Everyone except Wally, that is.
This was the unintended series finale for MISSION HILL. They'd planed five more episodes for the season, but got shot-down by the WB before they were finished. Had it not been for Adult Swim's practice of salvaging abused and discarded animated series, the show would likely have been lost down the memory hole.
Oddly enough, there has been talk of launching a spin-off series in the last few months... The new show would be centered on Gus and Wally. I don't know if it can actually work in our nauseatingly 'woke' era. The old 'married' couple dynamic was actually funny and human. They'd both probably be horrified at the freak-show the rainbow flag 'activists' have made of themselves.
