The buzz around this hit comedy series has been growing, and recently, Kyle MacLachlan gave us something intriguing. The show's mastermind, Benito Skinner—aka Benny Drama—has crafted a semi-autobiographical tale that's really resonated with audiences.
The story? It follows Benny, a freshman and former football player, trying his best not only with school but also with understanding who he really wants—and needs—to be, all while staying in a closet that sometimes seems too tight. It's a rollercoaster ride with laughs, feels, and some major life lessons. Benny's friendship with Carmen, played by Wally Barham, adds another layer, making their shared freshman adventures pretty unforgettable.
Why we're buzzing about season 1—and season 2
Season 1 left us all hanging on a nail-biting cliffhanger. Carmen almost accidentally outs Benny in front his crush, Grace, putting their friendship at risk. And just when we couldn't take any more drama, Carmen kisses Miles, who Benny has a major thing about. Can you say intense? These twists have us all eagerly waiting on pins and needles.
