Rick & Steve: The Happiest Gay Couple in All the World is an American-Canadian stop motion animated sitcom created by Q. Allan Brocka, who also acts as director. It is a spin off from Brocka's 1999 short film of the same name, and debuted on the LGBT focused Logo network in July 2007 and on the Canadian Teletoon's late-night programming block "The Detour" that October. The show premiered in the UK on E4 on 17 September 2008 and in January 2010 on Virgin 17 in France. After the first season aired, Logo renewed the program for a second season, which debuted on November 11, 2008. The animation of the original Rick & Steve shorts were done using Lego blocks and figures, prompting a lawsuit from the company. Though the series no longer uses Lego blocks, it still draws comparison to both them and those by Playmobil. It is produced by Toronto-based production studio, Cuppa Coffee Studio. Currently, there are no further plans for a third season of Rick & Steve.
Because of the hospital bills for Dixie, Kirsten and Rick come up with a way to get free health care. With the marriage of Steve and Dana. Meanwhile, boarder patrol is deporting anyone who is not American so Chuck and Evan try to turn Evan's mother into an American woman.
Dana begins to get jumpy after the news reveals that Lesbian gangs are terrorizing West Lahunga. Also, Kirsten and Rick take baby Dixie for her first doctor check up.
Is Steve a racist or is Rick too sensitive? Steve is worried that he might be a racist so he goes to a black gay bar to prove that he isn't.
Chuck treats the whole gang to a trip to San Francisco for Gay Pride, but things don't exactly go as planned. Before you can say "Queer Diaspora," Rick and Steve and Kirsten and Dana all end up tussling with a band of uber-PC San Franciscans. Hell hath no fury like a Radical Faerie or a horny drag queen nun/activist spurned! It's attack of the gay cliches--but who's more pissed off? The radical SF progressives, or the twinks and dykes from West Lahunga? Harvey Milk never meant for it to be like this!!!!
A bathhouse really is like a box of chocolates, right? Especially the crumbling, long-forgotten, underground ones... who knows what terrifying stickiness could be lurking in those corners? Yes, in our next episode Rick, Steve, Chuck, Evan and Condie must work together to escape the dark depths of the cruising ruins of West Lahunga. Scary! Meanwhile, aboveground, Dana's baby weight has our favorite butch doubting Kirsten's attraction to her. Will Kirsten spice things back up with her partner? Or is motherhood really taking away the spark? Oh, the plagues of insecurities!
Mom-fight!!! Well not yet, but when Steve's mom Joanna barges in to Rick and Steve's happy little homo home to announce she's moving in, it ain't pretty. First, Joanna brings her dog, Wiener. Ahem! And Pussy -- Rick and Steve's kitty -- doesn't like that one bit. (Face it. It's very Pussy vs. Wiener in West Lahunga.) Then Joanna mistakes Rick's mom for the maid! Wrong-ness all around.
Rick, Steve, Dana, and Kirsten run out of gas on the way back from the hospital with the new baby. When Steve and Dana set off on a quest to get gas, they quickly find that they're not in West Lahunga Beach anymore.
As Dana struggles through a days-long labor and the never-ending bickering of her parents, Rick learns some secrets about Steve's past and Evan becomes an internet sensation.
