TV Pilot
With humility and heartbreaking hilarity, ‘the (718)’
presents the misadventures of beer-drinking, football-watching,
awkward homosexual Stephen and his two straight best friends
(as well as his beat poet conscience) as they navigate life
and love in New York City’s County of Kings. With only
a little less shoe talk than ‘Sex & The City’
(but with a lot more testosterone), it's a clever and sexy portrait
of a few of Brooklyn’s most (in)eligible bachelors brimming
with all of the insecurity, bravado and dependency that they
would prefer to keep secret.
