"Friends With Benefits": An honest look at the complexity of finding "the one," and the things one must do to survive along the way.
From executive producers Brian Grazer (Parenthood, Arrested Development), director David Dobkin (Wedding Crashers) and writers Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber ((500) Days of Summer) comes a comedy about five single friends, and how far they'll go for each other.
Dating is difficult. In fact, many times it's so uncomfortable that you have to look for creative ways to unwind after an unsuccessful night out. Ben, Sara, Hoon, Aaron and Riley are a group of close friends who do just that. After a bad date, they turn to each other for moral (and sometimes physical) support. Hey, what are friends for?
Set in Chicago, this comedy offers an honest look at the complexity of finding "the one," and the things one must do to survive along the way.
