Stacked was an Americantelevision show originally aired in 2005 on FOX. It was hailed as the opposite of Cheers, instead of a smart person in a "dumb" place, it is based on the concept of perceived-as-dumb person in a "smart" place. A workplace ensemble comedy, Stacked revolves around beautiful Skyler Dayton (Pamela Anderson) who is tired of her non-stop partying lifestyle and bad choices in boyfriends. Wanting a major life change, she wanders into "Stacked Books," a small family-run bookstore owned by Gavin Miller (Elon Gold) and his brother, Stuart (Brian Scolaro). On May 18, 2006, "Stacked" was cancelled, leaving 5 episodes un-aired in the USA. The last episode aired on January 11, 2006. The other five episode have since been aired in re-runs in the UK.
Divorced and unlucky in love himself, Gavin's inclined to regard Skyler as an embodiment of the vacuous, image-obsessed culture he has come to abhor. Stuart, however, is dazzled by Skyler's beauty and, much to Gavin's horror, offers her a job at their store, which she happily accepts as the first step in her quest for a steadier lifestyle. Unhappy that she's going to be minding the till next to such an intimidating bombshell is the store's sole other employee, Katrina (Marissa Jaret Winokur), who doles out doses of realism and cynicism. Rounding out the characters is the store's one steady customer, Harold March (Christopher Lloyd), a preeminent, but retired, rocket scientist.
You can't judge a book by its cover - especially when it's only covered by a miniskirt and a baby-tee.
She sells books. Like you care.

Cast
Pamela Anderson - Skyler Dayton, tired of her non-stop partying lifestyle, enters "Stacked," a small family-run bookstore, and takes a job.
Elon Gold - Gavin Miller is divorced and unlucky in love. He sees Skyler as representative of the vacuous, image-obsessed culture he has come to abhor.
Brian Scolaro - Stuart Miller is the brother of Gavin. He is smitten with Skyler and offers her a job at the store.
Marissa Jaret Winokur - Katrina works at the store's coffee counter. She feels threatened by Skyler's presence. She is also chronically unlucky, having grown two sets of wisdom teeth, found herself knocked out while behind stage at an Aerosmith concert, and is always late for work.
Christopher Lloyd - Professor Harold March is a regular customer to whom Katrina always reveals her nefarious plans. Skyler loves to play with his hair. He is always reading the newspaper. His presence commands gravitas, however whenever he speaks, he sounds like a crazy man.
The entire bookstore is one main set, though there are three centric locales: the coffee shop, the till, and the back office, which has a door. There are stairs on the set next to the coffee shop, but it is unknown where they lead. There is also an elevator near the magazine racks, behind the coffee shop.
In the series opener, Skyler enlists the bookstore gang's help in ending her relationship with her philandering rock-star boyfriend while, begrudgingly, Gavin asks Skyler to return the favor to make his ex-wife jealous.
After falling asleep on the job, Skyler is replaced by Brent, a true know-it-all, but she returns after deciding that he made a mistake in firing her. Convinced by Stuart to give her another chance, Gavin allows both Skyler and Brent to work for a day, and afterwards, one must go.
Comments about Skyler being a "groupie" come back to haunt Gavin when he proves to be one himself. Meanwhile, Skyler tries to get Katrina in to see her favorite band and Harold tries to make amends for telling Stuart he has no chance of ever being with Skyler.
When Gavin reveals that he had a sex dream about Skyler, it upsets the delicate balance of the entire bookstore and throws it into a sexually charged tailspin.
When Stuart volunteers to retrieve Skyler's grandfather's watch from her ex-boyfriend, Eddie, he ends up getting sucked in by Eddie's charms himself. Skyler attempts to get her mind off Eddie by attending a knitting group, headed by Katrina, and finds that the company of women is quite different from her expectations.
Skyler tells everyone in the bookstore that she loves them, but not Gavin. Harold thinks it's because she's infected with a life-threatening illness, while Katrina thinks she just wants money.
Skyler reunites with an old friend, Eve, who she hasn't seen in a very long time. To her surprise, Eve looks completely different from how she did at their previous meeting, and is planning a wedding. Eve then asks Skyler to be her maid of honor.
Gavin’s writing club publishes a critically acclaimed novel, thus Gavin is inspired to write one of his own. Skyler and the others don’t think it's a good idea.
Skyler thinks that Harold is lonely, so she attempts to fix him up on a date. Meanwhile, Katrina has a run-in with an Asian health inspector who thinks she's a racist.
It is Katrina's birthday, and she keeps trying to attract the attention of a handsome customer. To keep her happy, Skyler throws a western "Hoedown" and invites the customer. But when he doesn't show up, Katrina becomes upset, and Stuart "cheers her up". Meanwhile, Skyler cleans out Gavin's closet.
When Gavin experiences all the symptoms for gallstones, he decides to get surgery. When the nurse gives numbing drugs, Gavin tells Skyler he loves her--and it wasn't just the drugs talking!
