A washed-up television star attempts to crawl out of the bottle and back to the top of the heap in this showbiz mockumentary starring Andy Dick as the biggest underdog the small screen has ever known. The time has come to sober up and jump back in the fray, but could it be that Danny Roane (Dick)'s talent has finally been drowned by a few too many week-long benders? As he takes his shot at directing his first-ever feature film, the world watches wondering whether he'll turn out an undisputed classic or simply blackout before the martini shot is in the can. Ben Stiller, Maura Tierney, James VanDerBeek, and Bob Odenkirk all drop in to wish their old friend good luck as he stumbles his way down the comeback trail.
