If you don't like short shorts, this program is for you with three longer, bigger shows - including HERE TV's latest sexy drama "Guap," or a story arc from "What About Me?" dealing with the dark humor of death and almost the entire season of the soap "Basic Bitches." Sunday’s program is longer, more complete glimpses into some terrific web series. Basic Bitches is a soap opera spoof that was introduced inside a feature film last year. HERE TV’s Guap is of two men who reconnected in sexy Italy but it’s not quite a love story when there’s crimes and scams involved. What About Me? Is a dark comedy that starts with a botched funeral, and our lead character's challenges get worse…if that’s possible.
