Off Centre aired from October 2001 until October 2002 on the Wb.
They were two mismatched twenty-something roommates who had met while students at Oxford and now were living in a trendy section of Manhattan. British Euan ( Sean Maguire) was a suave , free-spirited womanizer while American Mike ( Eddie Kaye Thomas) was incredibly neurotic and conservative. Euan was working as an investment banker while altruistic Mike was writing press releases for a nonprofit organization. The parade of sexy women with whom Euan had a succession of short-term relationships made Mike question his committment to his girlfriend Liz ( Lauren Stamile), his supervisor at work. Also seen regularly were Chau ( John Cho), their smart-aleck friend who worked at a neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant, and Status Quo ( Jason George), a self-absorbed rap star who lived in the building and who alternated between his professional persona as an angry black man and his real personality as a savvy businessman.
In January, after a security camera caught Mike and Liz making love in the office, he quit and struggled to find a job. At the start of the short-lived second season, Mike and Liz, concerned that their relationship had gone stale, broke up. They remained friends and occasionally still made love , which seemed to mean more to Mike than to Liz. When the charity for which they had worked lost its funding and shut down , Liz was also out of work.

No Laughing Matter
The freshmen comedy evacuated after a powder substance was found
By Lynette Rice
Making sitcoms has become a serious business in post–Sept. 11 Hollywood. For one thing, it's no longer possible for John Q. Public to line up outside a television studio's door waiting to catch a taping of, say, ''Everybody Loves Raymond'' or ''Friends.'' Security concerns have prompted sitcoms to rely solely on organizations that round up specially screened groups from military bases or colleges to fill the studio bleachers. Not that anyone's complaining. ''Our first show back [after Sept. 11] was the best audience we've ever had,'' says ''Yes, Dear'' executive producer Greg Garcia. ''People were looking forward to getting out of the house and laughing.'' But things got downright scary on The WB's ''Off Centre'' set last month, when a suspicious powder was found in (no joke) the make-up room, forcing a temporary shutdown of the freshman comedy. That was Burbank's fifth anthrax scare that day, says ''Off Centre'' executive producer Danny Zuker, who never believed it was the real deal anyway. ''We're just this little show on The WB. You have to be a dumb terrorist to hit us. 'ER' is right next door, for chrissakes.''
