Bosom Buddies background

Bosom Buddies

In this comedic series, two ad struggling men don female personas to make ends meet, moving into a shared apartment that's their only affordable option.

Two advertising designers, Henry and Kip, faced a housing crisis and could only afford a condemned building. After a close call with a wrecking ball, they find a solution by assuming female identities, Hildegard and Buffy, to rent a room at a women-only building. As they navigate their careers and personal lives, they must keep their deception a secret to avoid eviction, all while resisting the charms of their beautiful neighbors.
