CGiii Comment

Watched one episode, that's it.

The soundtrack is far too intrusive...but, ultimately, if you think herpes is funny, this is the web series for you!

The(ir) Blurb...

A six-part romantic comedy for YouTube, which follows twenty-something overachiever Saffie, who discovers she has herpes and reaches out to Bek, the one night stand who ghosted her and the only person she's ever slept with. When Bek insists on helping Saffie as she recovers from her initial outbreak, the two, bound together by their shared virus, come to better understand herpes, sexuality... and each other.
