Stroker and Hoop

Meet Stroker, a private eye still mastering the art of sleuthing, and his partner Hoop, self-proclaimed master of disguise. Together with their disobedient talking hatchback C.A.R.R., they'll help anyone dumb enough to respond to their 1/8-page ad in the yellow pages. Stroker and Hoop don't always solve the case, but they will sleep late, drive fast and shoot guns trying.

Stroker

Stroker is an ex-mattress salesman who decided to follow his passions. Since his passions are sleeping late, driving recklessly and spying on attractive women, that didn't leave many options besides being a P.I. When you hire Stroker, don't expect immediate results. But once he's spent all your advance money, Stroker won't hesitate to start busting down doors and shooting perps. Unfortunately they're usually the wrong doors. And "bystanders" might be more accurate than "perps."

Hoop

Stroker's partner in crime-solving, Hoop is the sensitive, soul-searching, disguise-loving, struggling actor half of the team. But don't let his sweet demeanor fool you--when danger calls he's more than ready to whip a gun out of his fanny-pack and fire in your general direction. Hoop has game with the ladies, but it's somewhat hampered by the fact that he's always broke and lives at home with his mom.

C.A.R.R.

A crime-solving hatchback powered by a state-of-the-art computer. State of the art, that is, for the mid-1980's. C.A.R.R. does his loyal best to help Stroker and Hoop solve the case even though he's not fond of car chases. Or being shot at. Or having food inside of him.

Double-Wide

Stroker's friend, C.A.R.R.'s mechanic, and a sort of low-rent Thomas Edison. Double-Wide's inventions come in handy when Stroker needs a machine gun attachment for C.A.R.R., an anti-hypnosis helmet, or a combination helicopter/jetski made out of duct tape. Double-Wide has an amazing temper, but directs most of his hatred towards himself.

Coroner Rick

A happy-go-lucky guy who's very comfortable around all kinds of people. And parts of people. He's always willing to perform a pro-bono autopsy to help Stroker get his man. Has the rare ability to examine the burned entrails of a murder victim in less time than it takes to finish a meatloaf sandwich.

Angel

As Stroker's ex-wife, she's eternally trying to get Stroker where he's supposed to be when it comes to their son Keith. Sometimes it helps.

Keith

Stroker's son. Stroker wishes that Keith would adopt his Mom's take-no-crap attitude and spend less time on the hopscotch court.
