"BADD MANOR"
Format: 1-Hour Dark Comedy Series
Tone: Succession meets The Royal Tenenbaums by way of BoJack Horseman
Logline:
In the depths of a shadowy mansion-turned-rehab in upstate New York, the world’s elite come to get clean—or at least pretend to. Run by a sketchy, semi-qualified “doctor” and staffed by three recovering con artists, Badd Manor skewers power, addiction, and redemption in equal measure.
Synopsis:
Once infamous for secret retreats and global conspiracy chatter, Badd Manor now bills itself as the most private rehab facility in the world. Inside, royalty, billionaires, and disgraced world leaders detox away from prying eyes. At the helm is Dr. Sydney Pendleton—an addict in recovery with an online degree, a self-sabotaging streak, and just enough delusion to think he can help.
To prop up his operation, Sydney enlists three broke, barely-clean addicts to pose as his staff. Meanwhile, Arthur—the manor’s dryly sarcastic and mysteriously loyal butler—manages the daily chaos while harboring a secret mission of his own.
Badd Manor is a deeply human, unflinchingly funny look at what it takes to get better—especially when you’ve had everything handed to you. Every season brings new clients, new secrets, and new reasons to believe that no matter who you are…
“It’s all bad.”
Why Now:
In an age where power and dysfunction go hand in hand, Badd Manor turns the mirror on the elite, exposing how status doesn’t save you from yourself. It’s a timely takedown of wealth, addiction, and the illusion of control.
