A diverse group of lifelong friends turned middle-aged, disillusioned doctors must create a man-cave out of an apartment to rekindle their brotherhood, or else face being your typical doctor hero.

SYNOPSIS:

SERIES LOGLINE --

Four diverse narcissistic 'ol school docs escape the humdrum of saving lives through their rekindled brotherhood.

Overview Popular TV shows like “Seinfeld,” “Friends,” and “The Golden Girls” have a loyal following as people are vested in friendships. Likewise, this show will uplift people’s spirits with the simplicity of a ‘not-so-perfect but love you just the same’ friendship and a good laugh. Values that friendships are built upon will be highlighted. In the pilot, to speak the truth is easier said than done.

Summary Shankar ditches family time and rents an apartment on his OWN for him and the guys, without his wife finding out. He must feel young again and relive the good ‘ol days, but he needs to convince his friends to come along for the ride. His friends are drawn in from various struggles - radiologist Tar from overworked eye strain, oncologist Manny from patients hitting on him, and cardiologist Reggie from divorce related loneliness. On the way to the apartment, Manny kills his blind neighbor’s seeing eye cat and attempts a ‘switch-a-roo’ that goes wrong. Meanwhile, Tar plans to save Shankar from presumed ‘man-nappers,’ as why else would Shankar be at the undisclosed location? When they establish their “man-cave” apartment, Reggie finds a way to cope with divorce through their rekindled brotherhood. At last, their “man-cave” attracts a special visitor that nobody can refuse.

This is so fun! To make the logline feel complete and really let it sing, we just want want to know both what obstacle they're overcoming, and what the stakes are/what the "or else" is.

But! This sounds like a really really good time. It's a piece that a lot of folks could relate to, and would have a GREAT time relating to.
