Ronald Jefferson (Tim Russ) is the Mall Administrator. Running gag is him getting on the other mall people about some "Mall rule and regulation"

Theme Song:

At the mall from the MTV Musical American Mall

Show Trivia!!

Scarlett was originally cast as Miranda but the producers decided to recast her as Sarah to take advantage of her natural innocence

Steve was originally in the pilot of "Late Afternoon in America" but quit the show to join the cast here

Show was originally set in the mid-80s as Major Malls were more hip then. After some anachronisms and the possibility of a crossover episode with "Woman, beer and pizza" the producer decided to bring it into the current times.

The theme song was originally going to be Billie Jean, when the mall was moved to modern day a muzak version of it was going to be used, but the American Mall soundtrack really seemed to fit the sprit of the show.

You spelled "accomplice" wrong.

if a woman is shy, why would she be an actress? Do you understand the concept of acting? Any actress worth a damn can pretend to be shy...

I want someone who looks the part, just wanted to throw it out and see I could get the perfect girl...have a few ideas but nothing I am really happy with so thought the masses would help me out.
