into a confusing and panicked haze. Once Jeremiah
gets a move on it, literally, we are introduced to the
second roommate Davis Roberts (Kristen-Alexzander
Griffith) who is so close to his Broadway dream that he
can taste it. Unfortunately, for our boys, those
Broadway dreams are going to have to wait. Enter the
third roommate, Preston Mills III (Troy Valjean Rucker)
who offers some over do food therapy. Little does
Preston know his dreams are just as ill fated as his
roommates, it looks like Preston should have saved a
cookie or six, for himself! Watch how these three best
friends deal with life, love and pursuing their dreams in
the city.
Episode 2: Unexpected Song
Bring on the men! It seems that life has a lot more to
offer our boys, as the saying goes: for every Jack there
is a Jake and for every Romeo there is, well, a James.
So is the case for our boys as they discover that there
may be more to this beautiful city than their
never-ending pursuit of stardom. Whether it is found
running in a park or setting a musical tempo, romance
for Preston, Davis and Jeremiah, most certainly does
not discriminate.

exactly what we need sometimes. During a so-called
professional musical coaching with Donovan (Fred

intentions forces Preston to reconsider a longstanding
tradition. While through his own personal darkness,
Davis begins to realize that the silver lining may actually
exist after all.

approach...he fails.

to be in the hands of Trevor (Benjamin Fischer), and
