COMING FALL 2026: 

 

GROWING UP MOVIES  VOLUME I:

A$$HOLES IN ARBITRATION

 

Inspired by nostalgic home-made movies, this is the pilot for Growing Up Movies — an experimental show that spoofs old daytime court shows like "The People's Court," pairing members of the original childhood "cast" with headling comedians, YouTubers, and social media stars, all set against a retro late-80s look.

​

The story picks up where a childhood filmmaker's first short left off. In 1989, two 12-year-old friends bet on a baseball game. When the loser welches, he discovers his friend's secret identity — a demon straight from hell. Chaos ensues, all caught on tape. Flash-forward to present day - the case still isn't settled, and the original footage becomes courtroom evidence in a showdown decades in the making.
