What is this show?

I was thinking about a show that I THINK used to be on MTV a few years ago that I kinda liked before it got taken off. However, I don't remember the name of the show, at all, and I couldn't find it on MTVs site.

It was animated, and I only saw a few episodes. The characters were all 20-somethings, and what little I remember is that one character was a heavyset Native American girl who worked in a bookshop and played Dungeons and Dragons, one character was a tall blonde nerd-type (I remember one episode where he went to a comic book convention with a goth/raver type girl he had a crush on), and I vaguely remember an episode where two girl and two guy characters had a race to see who could get to the beach first, where the winners got to pick what swimsuits the losers would wear. One of the guys had to wear a thong with a pinwheel on the front.

This sound familiar to anyone?

It sounds vaguely familiar, but the only MTV animation I watched was Daria...

If it'll help free up a few trains of thought, I am only partially sure it was on MTV. It could have been on HBO or something.

No... I know it wasn't Daria. I think it'd be kinda hard to forget a plotline like that...

It seems like an MTV thing, though. Or, at the least, it seems like, just as Daria ended, they were running ads for a new animation. I don't know the plot or anything, so I may be thinking of something completely different. But it kinda makes sense as a new show to start after the end of Daria.

Yep, that looks like it. Kinda hard to tell with that picture, but it looks like it. Although, I seem to remember the native american girl being a bit more heavyset than she appears in that picture. Regardless, I am confident enough to say that that's it.

Thanks, Fyrt.
