The NBC comedy sit-com UNDATEABLE strikes a new chord with audiences as the show continues to go "live" this season.

The series, which originally premiered in July of 2014 and is now in its third season, centers around mismatched roommates Danny Burton (Chris D’Elia) and Justin Kearney (Brent Morin) and their group of oddball friends who all live in Detroit and mostly spend their time hanging out at Justin’s unsuccessful bar.

Friends include Danny’s sister, Leslie (Bianca Kajlich), Shelly (Ron Funches), Burski (Rick Glassman), Brett (David Fynn) and new waitress Candace (Bridgit Mendler), who quickly becomes like a little sister to the gang. Spending most of their time at Justin’s bar attempting to solve each other's problems over beers, they mostly give each other a hard time, while knowing deep down they've always got each other's back.

 Danny himself is a 30-ish carefree single guy who has watched most of his friends move on to serious relationships. When his last remaining friend Shannon moves out to get married, Danny searches for a new roommate. The promising candidate is Justin, the owner of Black Eyes Bar in Detroit (frequently mispronounced "Black Guys Bar").

and Bridgit Mendler.

Justin and his friends - the nerdy Burski, oddball Shelly, and recently out-of-the-closet gay guy Brett - all have certain qualities that make them appear "undateable".

While Danny himself has good luck getting women into bed, he is unable or unwilling to form a lasting commitment with any of them. Danny's attractive sister, Leslie, has similar fears about being undateable, having her own so called "baggage" of being a mid-30s divorcee.

UNDATEABLE is currently airing live on Friday nights on NBC, 8:00pm - 8:30pm (EST). NBC recently announced they have changed the game plan for the returning comedy series. After going "live" on both coasts in the third-season premiere (Oct 9, 2015) the multi-camera comedy was slated to switch to the Saturday Night Live model for the rest of the season. They would do a "live" show for the East Coast first. This show would be taped and later broadcast to the rest of the USA at a later time. That particular format was done only once. Starting with Episode 3 on Oct 16, 2015, the show switched to mounting two live performances on the night the show airs. NBC executives say this format should remain for the rest of the season.

STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON tells the story of five young men who translated their experiences growing up in the neighborhood of Compton (LA-California) into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority and gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. 

The movie follows the rise and fall of the group N.W.A. and how these young men revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood as they ignited a cultural war.

Made for only $29MM this film has already brought in over $117MM to date (as of 8.27.15) and is just getting started. After bringing in an estimated $24.1 million on opening day (8.14.15) domestically, COMPTON shot straight to the top of the box office and has remained there for the past two weeks (August 14-27, 2015).

COMPTON has also earned the largest R-rated August opening in box office history. This has not only Universal Pictures (the film's distributor) but all Hollywood executives taking notice to a genre of film-making that has caught the interest of a younger generation curious as to exactly what went down to start the rap phenomenon which continues through modern day.

The film was produced by Circle of Confusion along with Dr. Dre & Ice Cube. Other producers on the project were David Engel and F. Gary Gray. Gray also Directed the film. The movie stars many formerly "unknown actors" (who will surely now become recognized names in the industry) including: O'Shea Jackson (as Ice Cube), Corey Hawkins (Dr. Dre), Jason Mitchell (Easy-E), Neil Brown Jr. (Dj Yella) and Aldis Hodge (MC Ren).
