“Bad Dad” is comedy exploring the unique dilemmas of suburban Dads. It follows our main character – Bad Dad – as he struggles to balance the demands of his many identities: father, husband, friend and middle-aged inner child. Think of it as “Entourage” plus twenty years, kids and vasectomies. Developed by Michael Amo (Canadian screenwriter/director) and Craig Moore, this no-budget, no-holds-barred webseries takes comedic license with aspects of the creators’ lives. Male posturing, man-dates and wine-tasting school fund-raisers (as recreated with Barbie doll frame-by-frame animations) are just some of the subjects to be tackled in future episodes of “Bad Dad”.
