Best friends Emily Mortimer ("The Newsroom," "Shutter Island") and Dolly Wells ("Bridget Jones's Diary") star in this self-improvised comedy series as, well, best friends whose longtime relationship experiences unexpected complications and surprising twists against the backdrop of a Hollywood film shoot. Actress Em needs a personal assistant to help her through her biggest film role yet, so who better to hire than Doll, her childhood pal who is welcoming a change of pace after her love life crumbles? But when the job becomes more taxing than intended -- blurring the line between their personal and professional relationships -- Doll and Em start to see cracks in their once-unbreakable bond.
