Jerrod Carmichael ...

 



...  is a young comedian with an HBO reality show.  He didn't come out until he was 30 so he thinks he's really a gay teen, round 17. He is in love for the first time and is cheating a lot and he chronicles all of it on the show.  It's very brave and new for television and I can relate to so much of his anxiety as a young man, his questions, desires, doubts. When he talks about his sexual escapades his therapist asks "ballpark" - he answers "thousands" and adds "I'm scared I'm lowballing that." the show is smart and scary and relatable and complex.
