About Last Night is a romantic comedy series that premiered on HBO Max in 2022. The show follows a group of thirty-something friends in Los Angeles as they navigate the ups and downs of work, friendship, and romance. At the center of the friend group are Bernie and Danny, two childhood best friends who could not be more different. Bernie is a commitment-phobe who jumps from one hookup to the next, unable to settle down. Danny, on the other hand, is a hopeless romantic looking for the perfect woman to build a life with. Despite their opposing views on love and relationships, Bernie and Danny have remained close since they were kids.
The rest of the friend group includes Rebecca, Danny’s level-headed roommate who plays therapist to the rest of the gang; Brad, Rebecca’s husband who she met thanks to Danny’s meddling; Joanna, a serial monogamist still carrying a torch for her ex; and Molly, a successful lawyer and the most cynical of the bunch when it comes to matters of the heart.
In the first season, each character faces new challenges in their relationships and careers. Danny thinks he may have finally found “the one” when he starts dating magazine writer Kate. But Bernie worries Kate might break Danny’s heart. Meanwhile, Rebecca and Brad debate whether to start trying for a baby, and Joanna attempts to re-enter the dating scene for the first time since her big breakup.
At work, the friends also deal with shakeups. Danny gets promoted at the sports media company where he works, which ruffles some feathers with his colleague Terrell. Bernie lands a big new client for her PR firm, but must hide the difficult reality that her business is struggling. And Molly wrestles with being passed over for partner at her law firm.
Throughout the ups and downs, the friends try to be there for each other with commiseration, advice, and plenty of drinks at their favorite neighborhood bar. But supporting each other through life’s hurdles proves harder than it seems. Long-buried romantic feelings, unresolved issues, and secrets held close to the vest all threaten the foundations of these long-term friendships.
With a talented ensemble cast featuring Jessy Hodges, Naomi Ekperigin, and more comedic talents, About Last Night blends hilarious situational humor with emotional character-driven storylines. The show’s sharp writing and relatable premise make it a modern must-watch for fans of ensemble relationship comedies. Over its first season, About Last Night explores the joy, messiness, and surprises that come with adult friendship, careers, and love.
About Last Night is a series that ran for 1 seasons (8 episodes) between February 10, 2022 and on HBO Max
