The protagonist of the comedy-drama series "Please Like Me" is a not-so-young and not-so-successful guy named Josh. His familiar life literally crumbles before his eyes when his girlfriend breaks up with him. As a parting shot, she tells Josh that he is secretly gay. Surprisingly, this thought doesn't shock him, but rather intrigues him. Especially when a fairly attractive guy falls in love with him at just the right time. However, Josh can't fully immerse himself in this new romantic experience because he has to take care of his mentally unstable mother.
