Season Five is here, and with it …comes scandal. Not for Josie, no way, but for a national show at KBXV. The time is ripe for a regime change…can the Lonely Hearts nab that precious drivetime slot? If Frank and Joanne want to impress those execs, they’ll need more than a foolproof plan. They’ll need a scheme-proof plan. Look alive, cuties, there are nefarious forces at work. Our favorite dynamic duo will need to outwit new foes while they catch up with old friends. We welcome back callers to ask, “Where Are They Now?” “How Have You Been?” and, “Is That Covered By Your NDA?” Check in with some of your favorites from episodes past and buckle up for the most surprising season yet.
Josie’s Lonely Hearts Club was created by Maximilian Clark and Rachel Music. Our cuties this week included Tiffany Cornwell, Tristin Miller, Laura Lee Walsh, Pat Harvey, Jessie Cannizzaro, and Ross Bryant. Produced by Simone Kisiel and Alexandra Grunberg. Executive Produced by Good Story Guild.
