About the Show
Though thoroughly modern, with plotlines borrowed from real life not reality TV Hard To Be Me is a new TV Pilot that is reminiscent of the best comedy dramas of the past 3 decades. Blending multimedia technology with old-fashioned classics in creative ways (from the depths of midnight role-playing-games to the heights of rapping Shakespeare), the characters of Hard To Be Me reveal their stories about friendships, family, and life in the modern world, in an engaging and entertaining way.
Unlike many of today's TV programs that view the world, and particularly young people, in a cynical light, Hard To Be Me captures today's youth and families in a comical and positive manner that has not been seen on TV in recent years.
At its core, Hard To Be Me focuses on the value of relationships and the links between people. Character driven, but without taking itself too seriously, Hard To Be Me takes the viewer inside the everyday world of todays students and social technologies.
Sure everyone has problems - everybody wants to be someone or somewhere else at some point in life, but sometimes its good to be right where you are.
