Plot Synopsis
FINDING HAPPY is a half-hour dramedy series that follows the Black female experience through the unfulfilled life of Yaz Carter, beginning with her unhappy 36th birthday. The 10-episode debut season features Yaz's loving-but-complicated family, her stagnant career in the evolving landscape of radio, and a merry-go-round of unrequited love while dating in the love desert of Atlanta. FINDING HAPPY debuted on Saturday, September 24, 2022 from 8-9pm ET/PT on Bounce TV, with back-to-back episodes. In the series opener, "Finding the Fool" (8pm), Yaz is dreading her 36th birthday; she's anything but happy. An unrequited love life, unmet personal and professional goals, topped off by an unwanted surprise birthday party lead to a public meltdown. Bottoming out, she determines to change her life, head to foot. A reunion with an old friend (and former flame) turns out to be more than just a random encounter. Then, in the second episode, "Finding Your Power" (8:30pm), while beginning her personal mission to find happy, Yaz's birthday meltdown becomes a viral meme. Porter "PC" Cross, Yaz's "big brother" in college, is now her boss at D-1 Media with plans for a new midday show; could this be the opportunity for Yaz to get her long-desired on-air debut? Yaz pushes boyfriend Shawn for clarity on their relationship. Jamila prepares her braid shop for the grand opening with help from her boyfriend Dexter and her mother, Jo.
