Groupidity: Episode 11

Joyful Julie experiences crippling guilt after her revenge stunt on the rude asshole…and for the first time, she turns to the group for advice.|

Synopsis: Julie Tanner has “some counseling experience,” and just started her first group therapy gathering. Joined by David, the pretentious business man; Brian, the frat boy that never grew up; Kelli, vindictively single; and Vanessa, repressed overachiever, they meet weekly in Julie’s garage to explore, expose, and mock their deepest, darkest issues.

Joyful Julie

Julie has started this support group as a passion project.  She has some “counseling experience” and while she seems a little odd, her methods prove effective over time.

Kick-ass Kelli

Kelli is vindictively single.  She’s recently divorced, and has a lot of lost time to make up for.

Devastatingly David

David: Money is status, ex-wife is evil.  Life is that black and white to him.

Valedictorian Vanessa

Vanessa is just now creeping out from underneath her controlling parents and the weight of her Type A personality.

Bitchin’ Brian

Brian is the 3-year-old little boy who never learned it wasn’t okay to play with his “pee-pee” in public. He doesn’t mean harm, but has no clue.
