In Adam Minus Josh by Dan Fingerman (Boys of a Certain Age), Adam and Josh have been together for eight years... only now they're not and everyone has an opinion. Fingerman's new comedy examines the chaos of gay dating culture, skewers our need for social media, and gives voice to Adam who must now navigate an entirely new dating world while trying to figure out who he is and what's next. Aided by an oddball neighbor, a profligate friend, and his suburban sister Rachel, it's quite literally Adam minus Josh.
