We have seen talk shows, reality shows, award shows, and horror movies like Host shot via video chat. On October 1st, NBC is giving us the first scripted television show that is completely shot that way throughout the series.
Connecting stars Otmara Marrero as Annie, Ely Henry as Rufus, Preacher Lawson as Ben, Parvesh Cheena as Darius, Jill Knox as Michelle, Keith Powell as Garrett, and Shakina Nayfack as Ellis. It is “about a group of friends trying to stay close (and sane) through video chats as they share the highs and lows of these extraordinary times.”
I think many of us can relate to this show because that is how we have been surviving over the last few months. I mean, how many of us have forgotten what our friends and family look like when they are not two-dimensional? I know I have. Therefore, I cannot wait to see how Show Creators, Martin Gero and Brendan Gall, create humor out of our reality.
Plus, it looks like it going to be the much-needed comedy we have been craving about our daily lives.
