The Best Show Ever, EVER!
The Overweighted Squirrels deliver their swansong performance in this epic tale of love, loss and empowering choices set in the fast paced backstage life of a television variety show.

Anyway, one day on the set of their most ambitious creation, the hit variety show "TISHONKA & WITKO PRESENTS," Witko shows up missing, or rather, doesn't show up at all. Like a vampire in a mirror. The rest of the crew panic, cut to a commercial, and scramble to find their missing leader, who as it turns out, has gotten married to a girl he may never love, only to escape the lonely existence of being the guy who pays for everything but is never recognized for all the good work he's done. After a thrilling chase to exotic Africa and a journey into the heart of reality television, Witko must choose between his brand new wife and his former life.
