Friended to Death

After having the worst day of his life, Michael, played by Ryan Hansen (that blond guy from Veronica Mars and Party Down), finds himself fired from his dream job and ditched by his best friend Joel, played by Zach McGowan (that ripped guy from Shameless and Black Sails). Wounded and vengeful, with nothing more to lose than his own inflated ego, Michael does what any social media-obsessed loner would do: he fakes his death online. Why? To find out which of his so-called "friends" will show up at his funeral, of course! But what begins as a simple litmus test for friendship, combusts into a nuclear meltdown, leaving Michael to contain the fallout. In the end, a tongue-in-cheek commentary emerges from the ashes, in this hilarious examination of friendship in today's hyper-connected world of social media.
