Written by Jay Lacopo, Cooper Barrett’s Guide celebrates the mistakes and misadventures of post-college life and follows a unique narrative structure where each episode starts at the climax of the story and circles back to the beginning. The show centers on 26-year-old Cooper Barrett (Cutmore-Scott), who, during a particularly disastrous experience, decides it’s time somebody let the under-20 crowd know about the unexpected challenges of life after college. Every episode is born from a problem or issue that we can all sympathize with and each episode is a guide on ‘How to survive….’. The pilot episode ‘How to Survive Your Lovable Jackass’ is about that friend who just causes trouble, and you can’t always take him nice places because he’s going to steal something. Other episodes deal with issues like ‘How to Survive Insufficient Funds’, ‘How to survive being a plus one’ and ‘How to Survive Losing a phone’. But from these kernels, things start to escalate out of control. Through a magical combination of bad luck and poor decisions, Cooper and his friends find themselves going from relatable situations to these insane comical spots. The series also offers ruthless stunts and big-set pieces and one of the episodes starts with Jack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!
This is Jack Cutmore-Scott’s first time working on a green-lit television show. The 28-year-old is Harvard alum, who has spent fair share of his time waiting tables, recently found fame with in Kingsman: The Secret Service as Rufus Saville.
