CGiii Comment

An aging gay T.V. host, Al DeWitt, and his crew race to complete an episode on glory hole cozies. This spoof on PBS-style, home improvement shows uncovers the behind-the-scenes antics of the making of a short, wildly Queer, shoestring-budget T.V. pilot. Laughter abounds as this multi-cultural, multi-generational, rag tag, T.V. crew, unleashes a gay array of sexual attitudes, ambitions, and wits that challenge the 55-year-old host to refocus his priorities through the kaleidoscopic lens of aging in the LGBTQ+ community.
