Plot Synopsis
Based on characters from PITCH PERFECT and developed by Megan Amram and Elizabeth Banks, PITCH PERFECT: BUMPER IN BERLIN is a six-episode comedy series that centers on Bumper Allen, who, 10 years after college, ditches his life as a security guard and moves to Berlin to make his dream of becoming a pop star come true. After his a cappella TikTok goes viral in Berlin, Bumper moves to Germany to pursue his dreams of becoming an international pop star. He sets his sights on the national German Unity Day concert, and he vows to work as hard as he can to transition from acapella amateur into bona fide superstar. In Germany, he feels like a fish out of mustard, but he knows he can do anything he sets his mind to. Meanwhile, Pieter Kramer (from PITCH PERFECT 2) has transitioned from German a cappella star to discredited German music manager. He signs Bumper as his only client, and brings him to Berlin to pursue his dreams. Their slightly odd American assistant, Heidi, secretly harbors dreams of being a singer-songwriter herself, and moonlights by performing original songs in a Berlin cabaret. Peter's sister, Thea, is a prominent Berlin DJ and music producer, who performs in clubs all over the city as DJ Das Boot. Pieter's ex-girlfriend, Gisela, is Bumper's main rival at the German Unity Day concert, and she will stop at nothing to beat him to stardom. All six half-hour episodes of PITCH PERFECT: BUMPER IN BERLIN dropped on Wednesday, November 23, 2022 on Peacock.
PITCH PERFECT: BUMPER IN BERLIN made its linear television debut on Monday, November 28, 2022 from 10-11pm ET/PT, as NBC aired the first two episodes as a one-hour sneak-peek event.
