Pretty Dudes (Web Video) | comment |
A digital Roommate Com about a group of good-looking friends in Los Angeles, who feel like their looks cause them all the problems they have. As the series continues, it becomes clear that there are plenty of other reasons the titular Dudes have problems.The series has a truly inclusive cast, with performers of all races, genders and abilities making up the large extended cast. The inclusion spreads to the crew as well, with artists of different backgrounds producing, writing and directing, headed by showrunner Chance Calloway. | |

The Heart | |
Pretty Dudes (Web Video) / int_1badfb3a | comment |
The Heart: At first Zario is presented as this, but as the series continues, Zario starts to seem more selfish in comparison to Sunji, who really cares about the Dudes and their lives to the point of not even charging them rent. | |

Named After Somebody Famous | |
Pretty Dudes (Web Video) / int_5f930b19 | comment |
The Gomez brothers' first names are the last names of influential Black Americans - (Duke) Ellington, (George Washington) Carver, and (Thurgood) Marshall. This means they're each also Named After Somebody Famous. They mention a sister named Alvera, which might be a riff on Sojourner Truth. | |

In-Series Nickname | |
Pretty Dudes (Web Video) / int_7360806f | comment |
In-Series Nickname Jay is the only character to call Zario "Zee" and he's also seen calling Marshall "Marshmallow" and "Marsh-swallows" much to the chagrin of Marshall's brother. Jay has an entire thing about nicknames it seems, as he calls his cousin Eugene "Genie" and has nicknames for all of his former girlfriends. Folks he doesn't have name for? The folks he's not close to, like all of the heterosexual Dudes. Carver has nicknames for his brothers, calling Ellington "Elías" and Marshall "Mars." They call him "Caví." | |

Put on a Bus | |
Pretty Dudes (Web Video) / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: Jay and Zario literally drive off into the night in the season one finale, so Jay's absence in the second season is inferred long before it's explained. Similarly, in the same finale, the last shot of Eagle shows her coming down the stairs with a packed bag - after coming out to her husband as a lesbian - and she is never seen again. | |

Coordinated Clothes: Even though it's never brought up in the actual episodes, each of the six main characters wear matching necklaces that symbolize their friendship. No other characters are ever seen wearing one, and the main Dudes wear them even when they're shirtless or nude. | |

Pretty Dudes (Web Video) / int_a7850fbf | comment |
Only Known by Their Nickname: Zario reveals his name is Hector to both Eagle and Iggy, but no one ever calls him that. Eagle never reveals her real name. She's so accustomed to this, it takes her a minute to realize that December's real name is December. Only Jay's cousin Genie calls him by his first name, Jericho. Jay has a plethora of alleged ex-girlfriends with ridiculous names who he had nicknames for: Connie (Constellation), Ricki (Hurricane), Dee Dee (Chandelier), and Tabby (Tabernacle). Though his roommates don't believe him initially, it's hinted they might all exist when his only onscreen ex-girlfriend Callie reveals her first name is actually Calligraphy. | |

The Bet: In the second episode, titled "The Dudes Make a Bet," the characters all enter a bet that is not resolved until the penultimate episode of that season. It's such a driving plot point that Eagle, a character who won't appear onscreen for several more episodes, is explicitly involved. | |

Alexander and his brothers have Alphabetical Theme Naming with first and last names that start with the same letter - Archer "Archie" Carson, Aaron Christopher, Aiden Connor, and Alexander Cole Erzähler. Interestingly, the only other important set of siblings on the show, sister and brother December and Boaz, have no theme to their names and are also the only set of onscreen siblings to not be the same gender. | |
