Why is it that the shows I really like get cancelled? • SNIP
Does anyone remember the show 'Oops!' ?  Now that was an absurd and • altogether
hilarious comedy.  Yes, they always cancel the good shows.

-Mike Petrucelli

Was 'Oops' the one on Fox network that took place in a post-nuclear world with
all the charcters having a streak of gray hair?

Yes, that's the one. The opening credits had a voice over along the lines of:

"We were having a veterans parade when some darn kids were playing." [kids
drive remote control car next to missle truck. Missle rasies and launches.]
"All of the counter attack measures worked perfectly and the world was wiped
out.  I was in my Volvo when it happened."  [Guy is at the bank and everything
around him vaporizes and he gets a grey streak in his hair] "I eventually found
a farm in a valley that had escaped destruction and met the handful of people
who survived."
Part way through the first episode:  "So how did you survive?"  "Volvo."  "Good
car."

I think I remember a rude businessman character.

Well I remember he was kind of arrogant at least.
