Manwhores
Manwhores is a series of 5-8 minute shorts that begins when ne'er do well college student Kevin's girlfriend breaks up with him and stops paying his rent. Naturally, he and his friends (or at least Randy and Greg) turn to the titular profession to pay the bills. Hilarity Ensues.
Surprisingly, not nearly as trashy as the title might suggest, with all the situations portrayed being either too tame or too bizarre to even be NSFW--well, aside from whenever Randy is talking.
The full series to date is available here.
Tropes used in Manwhores include:
- Broke Episode: Arguably the entire series, but especially episode 6.
- Crazy Cat Lady : Katherine in episode 2 is an unusual variant.
- I Have This Friend
- Ineffectual Death Threats : Randy makes a few of these
- It Has Been an Honor : In episode 5, featuring a Groin Attack no less!
- Porn Stache: Parodied in Episode 4
- Running Gag : A character responding non-plussedly: "It's been (an amount of time sufficiently brief as to render the other character's statement utterly ridiculous)."
- Shoot the Shaggy Dog : A relatively minor case in episodes 6-8
- Shower of Angst
- Shout-Out : Several
- Streetwalker : Naturally
- That Makes Me Feel Angry
- The Couch
- With Due Respect
- Unlimited Wardrobe Played straight with Randy's ever more lavish outfits, before being deconstructed in episode 6.
