I only saw the show because MTV also broadcast it.  It is an animated
parody of reality television programmes such as the Real World.  (So to
completely kill any humour left I'll explain futher how the characters are
both drawn and also drawn together by being stuck in a house.)

I wouldn't mind using it so long as people didn't think it was our one and
only slogan for all time, etched in stone never to be changed.

I'm having difficulty coming up with a better a way to express the
sentiments of creative collaboration summed up so nicely by "Drawn
Together".
