The Nest
Comedy Series
(13 x 30)
In Development
A quiet neighborhood piano bar becomes a senior’s hotspot where the quirks and passions of a distinctly odd collection of longtime staff and patrons continually collide and complicate each other’s lives.
There’s love in the air at The Nest, but it’s tinged with the aches, pains, heartbreaks – and wisdom – of aging. The Nest used to be a popular nightclub run by bartender Frank Lawson and pianoman Billy Trammel. But the club had fallen on hard times; at least it had until the gregarious new waitress Mandy Dickerson came into some money. Now Mandy is a co-owner along with Billy and Frank – who are both sweet on the fifty-something beauty. Trouble is, Mandy’s changing things and The Nest and its “nestlings” aren’t happy. Suddenly there’s a shiny new dance floor and silver-haired ladies and gents are flocking in, demanding upbeat tunes from a disgruntled Billy, and drinks with umbrellas from a flummoxed Frank. These clubbers plan to keep on dancing as long as their hips and hearts hold out; Frank and Billy just want to turn out the lights and go home.
