Bun In The Oven
5 Episodes
A woman in corporate America faces another challenge in her career, as she deals with an unexpected pregnancy by a younger man with a low-paying job.
Vision For The Show:
The series is inspired by today’s politics and social commentary. With it being hard enough to raise a child with two parents, we can dive into a deeper topic regarding the single black mother who either has to put everything on hold or take on many obstacles in corporate America while carrying a child. The series can continue with the topics of domestic violence while women are pregnant, daycare being too expensive to the point of trusting your child with the “neighborhood mom” while at work, dating, etc
