Short Summary
U.G. is a comedy webseries that chronicles the pitfalls and unfortunate realities that 25 year-old{Axel Farquharson} faces as he is forced to move back into his childhood home with his family after not being able to secure a job upon his college graduation. Despite being the first in his immediate family to graduate from college, Axel does not receive the admiration and understanding he thought would await him upon his return. At heart Axel wants to become a musician, yet honestly he doesn't hasn't had the courage to do so. Thinking his family would understand the difficulties finding a job an economy coming out of a recession is a definitely a overstatement. Well maybe they was some empathy, but it seems that Axel has began to wear out his welcome, in his own home!...with two younger teenage siblings, money is getting extremely tight to support another adult. And the 6 months since his graduation have seemed like the 6 years it took Axel to complete his undergraduate degree, and now everyone has reached their "breaking point."
Each episode represents a different interaction with people in his life, where it sucks to be in your mid 20s and broke and jobless and living at home( Quarter-life crisis).

Now we’re not going to tell you that this web series will change your life. But it can: make you smile, brighten your day, make you laugh out loud, fill your heart with joy, and change the world! Well maybe not change the world, but sometimes taking small steps, like smiling more could change the world. At the very least I feel it’s important to make you happier, to take a moment of your day to watch and laugh. The subject matter is something that is relevant, and many young adults, and families can relate.
I am currently the only person apart of the production, due to the economy( no pun intended) I am pursuing creating this project here in Atlanta oppose to California where I spent the past 3 years, but I still want to keep the ball rolling and create.
