In this episodic dramedy, we follow BRADLEY BORGEN, an actor and single everyman, as he tries desperately to pursue an unattainable dream in an increasingly absurd world. Bradley wants nothing more than a career in the often challenging and elusive movie industry, but his inability to cry hinders his success at every turn. Or so he thinks... Each episode takes us further and further through Bradley’s comic and tragic attempts to weep. He engages therapists, doctors, acting teachers, and random hook-ups. Will anything stick? In the background, his best friend Jeffrey helps to guide him in the right direction. But Bradley is always turning left when he should be turning right.
And then there’s his nemesis, Zakeri Thompson, a working actor, who is now ensconced in the industry’s ivory tower, where of course Bradley desperately wants to live. Naturally, Zakeri won’t let Bradley forget that he doesn’t live there, and probably never will. In fact, where Bradley lives, is in his Mom’s basement. And if that isn’t humiliating enough, his newly single Mom upstairs, is likely fornicating with two men — at the same time! Come with us on Bradley’s often treacherous journey through life’s obstacles to fulfill his star dreams, and maybe find his way to understanding who he is. And, if things go right for once, maybe he’ll even find his way to love.
