Two broke comedians go from rags to riches when a pop superstar / garbage boy mistakes their parody video for a really sick jam and hires them to be his new songwriters.
6 Episodes
E01 Pilot
Lucy and Gabe: they're your stereotypical broke comedians with a dream. Was that dream to write pop songs for superstar / garbage boy Micah Jax? Probably not, but that's what happens after Micah mistakes one of their parody songs for a "real" dope track and offers them tons of cash in exchange for their skillz and integrity. Hey, bada bada babies gotta din din, right? (Translation: comedians have to eat, too.)

E02 Kiss the Rings
Gabe and Lucy find out the price of selling out and cashing in. First, they've got to impress a terrifying record executive, who immediately threatens them with banana bread enemas. Then, their day in the life of a pop superstar continues with an enlightening visit to Micah's mom-ager. Welcome to the serious music industry, kids!
September 28, 2016E03 Parody vs. Plagiarism
When rival comedians post a parody video skewering Micah's hit song "No Regrets," Micah is ready to sue. Luckily, he gets distracted by the sounds of sweet hotel-lobby jazz just long enough for Gabe and Lucy to use their nouveau riches to buy off those fools for cheap, and protect their own dirty secret (comedy, whaaaaat?) in the process.
September 28, 2016E04 One Bling to Rule Them All
Despite some truly dope humanity lessons from Gabe and Lucy, Micah disappoints everyone after ordering bling made entirely of blood diamonds (because the name sounds hardcore.) Our comedians' work is never done, especially with a dude so dumb he thinks Sierra Leone is a singer.

E05 Authenticity
Angry Lyle is back with an ultimatum for Gabe and Lucy: find Micah - or else. The mercurial pop star is M.I.A. after a Twitter feud escalates with rapper Crimson Puma. Luckily, Gabe and Lucy are now so tight with Micah that they're able to track him using his trail of Instagram selfies.
September 28, 2016E06 Finale
Gabe and Lucy's artistic relationship with Micah hits a high-note as he films a music video for the hot new track they wrote him, and he's inches closer to respecting women too! But when Micah learns the truth about their secret comedian identities, Lucy and Gabe have to write the ultimate apology track to win back Micah's trust and prove they're the real thing.
