After moving back home to Staten Island, he struggles to deal with unfortunate family news, all the while trying to maintain his career, relationships and mental health in an increasingly surreal and heightened world of his own making. Described as a "heightened fictionalized version of Pete Davidson's life," the series has been compared to Larry David's "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Edie Falco stars as Pete's mother, Joe Pesci portrays his grandfather, and a diverse roster of guest stars, including Jon Stewart, Steve Buscemi, Jane Cutain, Machine Gun Kelly and Al Gore, appear throughout the episodes.
