Adulting (web series)

After producing two episodes and launching them on YouTube, Baur and Tolmay funded the production of four more through a May 2016 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that raised nearly US $19,000.
Premise.
Best friends Max and Faye are faced with the reality that they are nearly 30 years old and have no money, careers, or boyfriends.
Development and production.
Ben Baur and Thandi Tolmay, who graduated from The American Musical and Dramatic Academy with series director TJ Marchbank, conceived "#Adulting" while celebrating Baur's 29th birthday. Baur said, "We came up with the idea for "#Adulting" because we wanted to tell stories that were tragically relatable to this really odd time in life, when you're supposed to be a grown-up and you're just ... not." Baur is known for starring in the 2012–2015 web series "Hunting Season", and in 2015 was named by "Out" to its "Out"100 list.
After two self-funded episodes launched on YouTube were well received by fans, Baur and Tolmay funded the production of four more through a May 2016 Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that raised nearly US $19K. Guest stars include Drew Droege and David Del Rio. The new episodes premiered on October 7, 2016 at the Brooklyn Web Fest, and were later put on YouTube.
Reception.
Katrina Alonso of "Out" called "#Adulting" "hilariously awkward". Writing for "Instinct", Adam Dupuis deemed the series "binge worthy".
