Not So Straight: Behind the Scenes

Not So Straight in Silver Lake, Here TV's original comedy, follows four LGBTQ+ couples sharing a compound in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles, and this companion special opens the doors on how it was made. Director Billy Clift talks through the show's origins and his approach to shooting an ensemble comedy about modern queer relationships, while cast members including Calpernia Addams, Daniel Franzese, Johnny Kostrey, Diego Escobar and Josielyn Aguilera reflect on their characters, the chemistry on set and the neighborhood that gives the series its name. Behind-the-scenes footage from the set captures the loose, familial atmosphere of a small production. For fans of the series it is a chance to see the machinery behind the jokes; for newcomers it is a friendly introduction to the people who make Here TV's Silver Lake feel like home.
