Maybe Sunshine is a "coming-of-middle age" story about a 40something rock queen (Lisa Hammer, Triana Orpheus on Adult Swim's The VentureBros.) who builds a new band from scratch after the disastrous break-up of he rlast band a decade earlier. She was a big deal in the 90’s, but now she is 20years older, 40 pounds heavier, and divorced. She must learn how to tweet,text, twerk, hashtag and trend, just to keep up. She has to start from the bottom again, playing crappy gigs, dealing with nymphomaniac, drug addict bandmates, a quirky Colombian manager with 5 jobs, his mysterious bodyguard, a PeeVampire, debauched frienemies, a depressed male gigolo, a coke-head recordlabel executive, vapid models, and rival bands. She must do all this while navigating the new world of older lady-dom; like peeing when she sneezes,getting winded from one flight of stairs, amassing as much weight as she does debt, and worst of all: facing her own irrelevance and being called “ma’am”.Lisa handles her new reality with all the grumpiness and sarcasm of a Gen X,quirky, headstrong punk, managing to piss off or alienate everyone she meets.The show is a very frank, sarcastic dark comedy that really “goes there” with awkward, embarrassing situations and oddball characters, in the spirit of Inside Amy Schumer and Louie.
