The Dating Guy is a Canadian animated sitcom that aired from 2009-2010. The show follows the misadventures of four friends who live in a downtown Toronto apartment. In season 1 episode 2, titled "Beaver Fever," the guys try their hand at online dating.

The episode begins with Mark, the show's protagonist, lamenting his lack of success with women. His friends convince him to try online dating, but when Mark's first date turns out to be a dud, he's ready to give up. That is, until he meets a beautiful woman named Amanda.

Meanwhile, VJ, another of the show's main characters, is dealing with his own romantic troubles. While on a date with a woman named Debbie, VJ accidentally injures himself and becomes convinced that he has contracted beaver fever, a fictional sexually transmitted disease.

Back at the apartment, Woody, the third member of the friend group, is pretending to be a doctor in order to pick up women. His scheme works surprisingly well, until he mistakenly diagnoses one of his conquests with a serious illness.

As the episode progresses, the guys' attempts to find love become increasingly complicated. Mark and Amanda hit it off, but things take a turn when she reveals a surprising secret. VJ's paranoia about beaver fever leads him to make some questionable decisions, and Woody's fraud is finally exposed.

Despite the chaos, the guys finally manage to have some success in their love lives. Mark and Amanda reconcile after some initial hesitation, and VJ ends up with a surprising new love interest. Woody, meanwhile, realizes that honesty is the best policy when it comes to finding love.

Overall, "Beaver Fever" is a zany and irreverent look at love and dating in the 21st century. While the show sometimes veers into raunchy territory, it's ultimately a lighthearted and fun take on the ups and downs of modern romance.
