Well this is all artifice, since Sean Patrick Murray is definitely gay, I have known him since our freshman year. He has always been weird about his sexuality and tried to hide it but he did come out, and now he is making this stupid web series to pretend he is straight. Bullshit.

I go to Marymount Manhattan College…can I also audition for this?

Well Arlen, he wasn’t gay when we were hooking up. But I guess that was before May and anyways if he’s already out why would he use this webseries as a cover for his sexuality. It’s not all about him being straight. It’s about a bunch of different people going through different things. Don’t write nasty comments just because you are jealous you don’t have a reality show of your own. Do you think anyone would even watch yours? No, didn’t think so.

The show is not about Sean’s sexuality whether I want to believe what you are saying or not. Regardless it is irrelevant. The show is a refreshing new way of telling the stories of NYU students who are exposing the most exciting and vulnerable moments of their lives at time when people learn most about themselves. This is just a trailer that touches the surface. I am looking forward to watch full episodes that allow the cast to portray their whole selves as they overcome adversity in a city that can make or break you. I highly doubt there are selfish motives behind the purpose of this show. Looking forward to the next season and cast!

if i were in ny i would totally do this.

every nyu student has been pissy about this since they heard about it two years ago since we know there’s simultaneously no reason and every reason for this show to be made. i also still can’t tell if there is a meta-layer of humor here, or if this show is entirely serious. is it only funny if you go here?

and @ arlen: i think his ambiguous sexuality is just viral marketing for his tv show!

Wait– isn’t this just Felicity II?

Arlen Wayans… is that one of the lesser known Wayans? What’s the matter Arlen, are you still bitter you didn’t get to be in “Little Man” too? YA BURNT!

@mike

Agreed. This feels like one big inside joke for NYU students.

Anyone know what the song/artist is that’s used in the trailer? I like it and know it’s a cover but I have no idea who does it.

According this post, the audition is four days long with no start or finish time.

Sean and Briana from Under the Arch are hot (As is the rest of the cast)

Sean and Briana did a shoot for http://www.guapomagazine.com for Halloween and you guys should all go check it out.

Yes, yes shameless plug, but hey, they were great to work with!

@phillip its a cover of “animal” by Miike Snow but I dont know who does the cover

Besides the fact that this show looks ridiculous, it fails to recognize really any racial diversity at NYU. The clip shows a predominately white cast, which doesn’t make sense with the fact that our school is one of the most ethnically diverse in the country.

If you’re going to try to make this show at all authentic or any buy-in from real NYU students, you need to get a much wider crowd at this open call.

@Samantha the wonderful sky ferreira sings the song. CHUBBLY OUT!!

[...] you want to be a part of something publicized and demeaning, and reality shows just aren’t your bag, perhaps a pageant is perfect for you. Anyone who lives in Brooklyn or [...]

@ Rachel Rho- I agree that it needs more diversity. Although I think the way it started was just the kid filmed him and his real group of friends..so hopefully the “new season” will bring some color. Literally. Haha
