James and the city.

James and the City:

Like the multi-award winning Sex and The City. James and the City explores the day to day lives of a cosmopolitan young male living in Sydney's inner-west.

Episode 1: The Fireman
Summary: James and his boyfriends go out trying to seduce sexy firemen. They have brunch later and talk about it while puffing on white-tipped cigarettes and drinking macchiatos.
Reality: James and his friends get drunk in a dark room with strange people in it. They end up at The Gaslight Inn talking to big lesbian women from New Zealand. They all get just drunk enough to still be able to stand, but to repel any eligible women in sight. James goes to McDonalds, before walking home from Kings Cross. On his way home he starts talking to an English backpacker called "Keef". James and Keef try to walk into every pub on Park St and then down George Street, before finally not being turned away from Star Bar. They see a young man being violently arrested on the pool table. James walks home, misses brunch.

Episode 2: The 30-something
Summary: James and his gay-best-friend, Stamford catch a matinee. Afterwards, over cocktails, they realise that it isn´t so bad being in your 30s. James celebrates and spends $400 on shoes.
Reality: James and his brother, along with Nina and Milo go to see Youami at the Enmore. James and brother Nick stay at Bar Broadway until 5:30am claiming, "What? Tim Rogers would definetly still be drinking!" James falls over on the way home.
