Secondhand Sisters
Half-hour comedy pilot
Secondhand Sisters is a half-hour, premise-driven multi-cam sitcom about Jo, a tightly wound British millennial, and Andy, her annoyingly bubbly Gen Z American half-sister.
Both women have been emotionally adrift since their mother walked out of their lives and when they’re forced to live together and co-manage a chaotic temp agency in a grim corner of London, it’s like tossing a Mentos into a bottle of Coca-Cola.
At a time when we're all hyper-connected but emotionally disconnected, Secondhand Sisters explores what it means to build genuine connection when you're not sure you know how, or if you even want to.
