Amazon Prime LGBTQ Comedy Series

By Charlotte Robinson, July 28, 2020
If you need some comic relief during these challenging times check out “Smothered” the new comedy series on Amazon Prime that tells the story of Randy (Mitch Hara) & Ralph (Jason Stuart) who also wrote & produced the series about a gay couple navigating their way through couples therapy. “Smothered” is part of Amazon Prime’s strategy to amplify the comedy side of LGBTQ voices & stories for a global audience. Jason Stuart (The Birth of a Nation) & Mitch Hara (Mutant Olive) harness their unique comedic talents & baggage to express their joint creativity & (separate) couples experience. The dark comedy shines a glaring light on a longtime gay couple who can’t stand each other but can’t afford to get divorced. Jason Stuart stated, “We are thrilled for the opportunity to partner with Amazon as we share our latest project, extending ourselves outside of the gay community & making all kinds of people laugh together. Mitch Hara added, “Smothered” is also a celebration of diversity. One that includes Little People, Transsexuals, Asians, Blacks, Whites, Jews, Closet Cases & a fluid dog. You’re welcome!” Rom-com fans will have a demented field day with season one featuring seven, irreverent short episodes as the series unfolds through their uninhibited & often shocking therapy sessions, viewers discover how the couple of 20 years outrageously nit-pick & push each other’s buttons. “Smothered” is directed by Terri Hanauer with guest appearances by Dalila Ali Rajah (Criminal Minds), Erik Aude' (American Sniper), Clent Bowers (Little Fockers), Erika Ervin (American Horror Story), Helen Hong (Silicon Valley), Scott Krinsky (Chuck), Pancho Moler (Ray Donovan) 7 Carole Ita White (Laverne & Shirley).
