Described by the creators as a cross between The Golden Girls and Murder, She Wrote,[3] the series focuses on Nelson (Zook), Wood (Dietl) and Reggie (Copp), three gay bear friends sharing a house in Los Angeles' Silver Lake neighborhood, who are caught up in a murder investigation when they find a man dead in their bathtub the morning after Nelson's birthday party.[1]
The supporting cast also includes Ian Parks, Mario Diaz, Julio Tello, Jesse Meli, Scott Beauchemin, James Parr, Chad Sanders, George Sebastian, Tuc Watkins, Jackie Beat, Brooke Dillman and Bruce Daniels.
The first season of the show was presented as a series of 25 episodes, and a special Christmas episode was also produced.[4] Subsequently a DVD was released of the series re-edited into a single, continuous film. The DVD also featured the Christmas special as part of its two-disc set, as well as bloopers and outtakes, deleted scenes, a feature length commentary and behind the scenes interviews with the cast and creators.[5]
A crowdsourced fundraising campaign is currently underway for the second season. On January 17, 2013, the second season started production, although fundraising to finish the series is still underway.[6]
