Aging gay writer Jimmy Randall finally gets a big break when he's hired to produce his own show for the Here TV network called "Guy Dubai: International Gay Spy", but only with a tiny budget and many strings attached. Even though having been asked to hire an openly gay lead, he finds out that his lead Sam is straight-out willing to go with the flow for sake of the job. We go through a few episodes of Jimmy trying to shoot the episodes, while also trying to pretend to be Sam's boyfriend. To promote the show, Taylor, network boss sets up an interview for Jimmy and Sam as an unlikely new Hollywood power couple for the cover of OUT Magazine, but their relationship is a tough sell to the skeptical OUT editor, who's dug up some hilarious dirt on their past. Finally the shoot is complete and the team even gets 200 viewers to watch it.
Interestingly, while making fun of all beef, no substance in a lot of gay shows, this show actually manages to provide the same. We see a lot of hot bodied male, dumb but always horny pool boy, a wanna be lady actress, few more hot bodied extras walking around in barely nothing and more. Sam is the only one besides Jimmy who wants this to succeed. This show is all fluff and you have to keep that in mind while watching this. Expect over-acting, lot of hot guys, make out scenes, randomness and maybe. A couple of genuine laughs. I doubt that a follow up season will be ever made. (4/10)
