Donny and Cory are roommates who look out for each other.

The show, which premiered at Sundance in 2019, is based on the cult-hit web series My Roommate, My Friend, created by The Dress Up Gang, a comedy group featuring comedians Cory Loykasek, Donny Divanian, Frankie Quinones and director Robb Boardman. Their viral videos include Cute House and the CholoFit series. The show also features actress Andie MacDowell and comedians and frequent collaborators Brent Weinbach, Kirk Fox, Kevin Camia, Chase Bernstein, Christian Duguay and DeMorge Brown.
