Episode synopsis
Johnny Verona gets a chance to sell his bicycle messenger service, but turns it down when he finds out his people won't be included with the deal, the same thing that kept him from being a big rock star. A competition is held against Foley's company to secure a contract with a new advertising company; meanwhile, an unemployed Harvard graduate stops by the office to get a proposal delivered and winds up getting a job biking and keeping the books.
About Double Rush
Double Rush is an American CBS television comedy that lasted only one season in 1995. Robert Pastorelli played Johnny Verona, manager of a bicycle delivery service in New York City. Verona must keep his business on its feet in the face of competition from the increased use of fax machines and the internet. The show premiered 4 January 1995 and ended with the twelfth episode on 12 April of that year. The reason for its cancellation might be because of the title of the seventh episode 'The Show We Wrote the Day We Found Out We Were Going on Opposite Roseanne'. Apparently, "even the most smart-mouthed, wise-cracking New York working stiffs couldn't compete with Roseanne for ratings."
