A Love Triangle
The show explores people using St. Louis DTF, a “dating” app for married folks who want to spice up their marriages. A love triangle ensues and something bad befalls one of them.
A Work in Progress
Harbour has been iterating on this concept for a few years and originally cast Pedro Pescal. In the end, Pescal departed and Bateman stepped in. Harbour tweaked the script and took the show in a different direction.
When Art Imitates Life
Harbour has been in the news for his real-life love life with Lily Allen, ending in divorce after his indiscretions with other women.
The show premieres on March 1 on HBO.
