New web series Somewhere in Palm Springs

The new animated web series Somewhere in Palm Springs is about “four disconnected hipsters who sit poolside at an ultra-hip Palm Springs hotel.”

Written by Nate Clark and Allen Loeb, the series stars Drew Tarver (How I Met Your Dad) and Jimmy Fowlie (Go-Go Boy Interrupted).

“Life is hard when you’re young, dumb and hungry poolside in Palm Springs, California. Somewhere in Palm Springs is the harrowing tale of four friends forced to wait a normal amount of time for their lunch to arrive to their lounge chairs — they share hopes, dreams, neuroses and the sordid details of their various one-night stands. They may be vapid, but, hey, at least they’re vapid.”
