Single White Spenny was a Canadian mockumentary television series that aired briefly on Showcase in 2011.[1] The series chronicles the misadventures of a fictionalized version of Spencer Rice, played by himself, as he dates various women after his wife divorced him for being "an immature man-child emotionally incapable of a serious relationship."[2]

The cast also included Deb McGrath, Amy Matysio, Peter Martin, Wayne Thomas Yorke and Nikki Payne.

The series premiered on June 2, 2011.[3] It aired eight episodes, and was not renewed for a second season.
