| dc.description.abstract | “Slowpokes” is a half-hour dramedy series that follows Lane (33), a discouraged comedian-turned-caregiver, and Doug (38), an unfit legal consultant, as they unwittingly bond in the aftermath of heartbreak and death. While Doug grapples with a looming divorce and an overlooked talent, Lane wrestles with her abandoned ambitions and her late mother’s estate—including a coveted home on the Toronto Islands. This show straddles the fuzzy lines between endings and beginnings, tragedy and comedy, and friendship and romance. It’s about dumb luck, weird timing, loss, and grief. And it’s about love—but, like all classic rom-com couples, it takes Lane and Doug a while to realize that. | |
