About the show
INTERESTED IN is a coming of age series about the painful, steamy, fumbling encounters of a recently out college student, Parker. We follow his journey, in Philadelphia, as he begins to find himself after "the closet."
In Season 1, during his first openly gay hook up, Parker realizes he has much to learn. Through guidance from his best friend, Danny, and various hook up encounters, Parker learns to reinvent himself as he begins to freely express his sexuality for the first time.
In Season 2, Parker tries to find validation through sexual encounters. But he must rebuild his life when a date goes wrong. Through help from his childhood best friend, Anya, Parker must learn to heal, respect his body, and love the skin he's in.
