The Lone Gunmen (season 1)

The First (and only) Season of The Lone Gunmen commenced airing on in the United States on March 4, 2001, and concluded on June 1, 2001 after airing thirteen episodes.
== Plot ==
Three underground journalists, John Fitzgerald Byers, Melvin Frohike, and Richard "Ringo" Langley, pursue the truth on stories that the mainstream media ignores. They are joined by Jimmy Bond, a former patsy of Eastern European criminals and who is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and Yves Adele Harlow, a freelance spy who hides behind anagram names. Together the five just barely get by as they frequently find themselves way over their heads.
