Synopsis

Synopsis:  Julie Tanner has "some counseling experience," and just started her first group therapy gathering. Joined by David, the pretentious business man; Brian, the frat boy that never grew up; Kelli, vindictively single; and Vanessa, repressed overachiever, they meet weekly in Julie's garage to explore, expose, and mock their deepest, darkest issues.

Characters

Joyful Julie
Julie has started this support group as a passion project.  She has some "counseling experience" and while she seems a little odd, her methods prove effective over time. 


Kick-ass Kelli
Kelli is vindictively single.  She's recently divorced, and has a lot of lost time to make up for. 

Devastatingly David
David: Money is status, ex-wife is evil.  Life is that black and white to him. 

Valedictorian Vanessa
Vanessa is just now creeping out from underneath her controlling parents and the weight of her Type A personality. 

Bitchin' Brian
Brian is the 3-year-old little boy who never learned it wasn't okay to play with his "pee-pee" in public. He doesn't mean harm, but has no clue.
