Undateable

Everyone experiences a phase in life where they feel unappealing, whether it’s due to a lack of style, an unsuitable job, or even a bad haircut. While most people eventually move past this stage, some require a bit more assistance. Enter Danny Burton. At 29, Danny is self-assured, good-looking, and unaffected by others’ opinions, though he might be experiencing his own form of delayed maturity. He decides to lend a hand to his new roommate, Justin Kearney, who owns a struggling bar and tends to overthink, along with Justin’s quirky friends – Shelly, Burski, and Brett. Danny introduces them to his older sister Leslie, who is recently divorced and quickly connects with the group, as she too feels somewhat stuck in her life. The group spends much of their time at Justin’s bar, tackling each other’s issues over drinks. Despite their constant teasing, they are always there for one another.

Plot Summary:

Danny Burton is a carefree single man in his early 30s, observing as most of his friends settle into serious relationships. When his last single friend, Shannon, moves out to get married, Danny looks for a new roommate. He finds a potential match in Justin, who owns the Black Eyes Bar in Detroit, often mispronounced as “Black Guys Bar.” Justin and his friends – the geeky Burski, eccentric Shelly, and Brett, who has recently come out as gay – all possess traits that make them seem “undateable.” Although Danny is successful in attracting women, he struggles to commit to any of them. His attractive sister Leslie shares similar concerns about being undateable, carrying the “baggage” of being a mid-30s divorcee.
