It's been fifteen years since former boyband member and wine vineyard heir Phillip Firecracker retreated from the spotlight. Since then, he's been happy enough living out the rest of his days as a recluse, with only his murderous tabby, and unpaid intern-slash-best (only) friend for companionship. When his former band members reunite without Phillip, publicly snubbing him, Phillip vows to upstage them. That's where Nostalgia Nation (America's #17 source for D-list reality TV) comes in.

My boyfriend’s been trying to kill me for weeks. Well, I guess he's my boyfriend. I mean, we've never officially been introduced, but he's always standing in the shadows, watching me.
