Plot
Shortly after leaving the "Weekend Update" anchor slot on Saturday Night Live, Norm Macdonald resurfaced in this comedy about smart-aleck Mitch Weaver who teams with buddy Sam McKenna ( Artie Lange of Mad TV ). They open a revenge-for-hire business (Dirty Work Inc.) in order to raise $50,000 so Sam's father ( Jack Warden ) can get a heart transplant. After they bring down a dictatorial movie theater manager ( Don Rickles ), they next hire prostitutes to pose as dead bodies during an auto dealer's live TV commercial. Millionaire real-estate developer Travis Cole ( Christopher McDonald ) is bothered when Mitch and Sam interfere with his plan to wipe a woman's home out of existence. Cole hires Dirty Work to trash a building, so he can have it condemned. However, Cole doesn't own the building, and problems arise, mainly since the grandmother of Mitch's girlfriend lives in the building. The feud escalates. Cameos by Chevy Chase , the late Chris Farley , former child star Gary Coleman , Adam Sandler , and John Goodman . — Bhob Stewart
