Husks

A retired corn comedienne reluctantly mentors a Gen-Z blueberry writer. They fight, they collaborate, they grow.

Five seasons of generational humor clash. Cornlia, a legendary husk-dry stand-up, is forced into reluctant mentorship after her Vegas residency loses funding. Her writer, Ada — a queer blueberry thirty years her junior — is bad at deference and good at jokes. Season 5 is the final season; The Pulps have nominated Husks for Best Comedy in every cycle since its debut.
