Story
Do you ever watch an uplifting story about a queer youth finding himself, making the world a better place... and just secretly wish to yourself... I wish someone would just pull someone's hair and fall into a pool? If so, House Husbands is the show for you!
The first season of House Husbands focuses on an increasingly messy gay divorce and the ripple effect it has on this crumbling social circle.
This is Sylvester Fowler (Sam Pancake.)
Sylvester is the toast of the town in his affluent gay community in Palm Springs. He has a fabulous house, fabulous friends...
... and a handsome, successful husband, Howard (Tim Christian.)
They're the very picture of a perfect couple... until Howard tells Sylvester he wants a divorce...
Crestfallen, Sylvester reaches out to his friends for support. First he contacts his supposed BFF, Eddy Potter
Eddy is the town gossip who worships his best friend Sylvester. It's a problem.
But then Eddy gets a stern command from his therapist Barbara (Lori Beth Denberg): "No more Sylvester!"
With no Eddy to depend on, Sylvester seeks the help of perhaps the only stable couple in all of Palm Springs, the wealthy alpha gays...
Glenn Coldwater (Barry Brisco) and John Coldwater (Les Kurkendaal-Barrett)
Glenn and John are trying to have a baby via surrogate, and can't wait to share the news with their friends... but realize quickly that they're likely to be overshadowed by Sylvester's upcoming divorce.
Fortunately, they do find a surrogate they both like, Lily (Vana Bell).
Lily, however, is not exactly what she seems. More interested in the money they're offering than actually having a baby, Lily does whatever she can to keep the arrangement going.
Lily is best friends with a massage therapist at the local spa, Trent (Robert Rice.)
Trent is a total romantic who can't help but form a crush on his coworker. But when the coworker in question becomes a sugar baby to a wealthy older man, Trent embarks on a mission to abandon his morals and values and find a sugar daddy of his own.
Oh, and the coworker? His name is Christopher Alvarez (Jason Caceres.)

Christopher is a professional sugar baby who doesn't believe in love... just money.
And the wealthy man he snagged? Well, that would be Howard... aka Sylvester's soon-to-be ex-husband.
This melodrama comes to a head when all the players congregate together at a party held by Franklin Count (Miss Coco Peru) and Agatha Count.
Franklin Count has Palm Springs' worst kept secret... he's a big homo. When he finally decides to come out of the closet and leave Agatha, he throws himself a divorce party, inviting all of the local gay men to celebrate with him.
What happens next? You'll have to help us to get greenlit to find out!
