Flophouse is a Viceland show that stars comedians Clare O'Kane, Brandon Wardell, and Solomon Georgio, and it first aired in 2016. The series is a combination of stand-up comedy and reality television, where the three comedians take turns staying at each other's place for a weekend, sharing their lives, and performing stand-up comedy in their friend's city.

The show has a catchy tagline, "Welcome to the Funhouse," which sets the tone for the series. It's an honest and unfiltered look into the lives of three up-and-coming comedians, who try to navigate their personal and professional lives while traveling and performing in different cities.

The format of each episode is straightforward. Clare, Brandon, or Solomon fly to the other's city, where they stay with their friend for the weekend. Along the way, they get an insider's look at their pal's life and the local comedy scene. They hang out, explore the town, and perform stand-up comedy in front of an audience.

What makes Flophouse stand out is the raw and authentic nature of the show. It's not a scripted sitcom, but rather an improvised glimpse into the lives of three young comedians, giving viewers a glimpse into real-life struggles that up-and-coming comedy performers face, such as finding gigs, getting paid, and dealing with life on the road.

While they all share a love for comedy, Clare, Brandon, and Solomon have distinct personalities and styles that create a balanced dynamic. Clare is edgy and fearless, Brandon is witty and philosophical, and Solomon is laid-back and charming. Together, they balance each other out in their comedic and personal lives.

The show is also an excellent platform for showcasing diverse voices, as all three comedians come from different backgrounds and experiences. Solomon, for example, is openly gay and uses his stand-up comedy as a way to address issues of race, gender, and sexuality. Brandon has spoken out about mental health issues, and Clare explores dark and edgy topics with a comedic twist.

Flophouse is a show that will appeal to anyone who enjoys stand-up comedy and reality television. It's a hilarious and honest look at the lives of three comedians, who are trying to make it in the competitive world of show business. It's a show that is both entertaining and relatable, as it gives viewers a glimpse into the realities of life on the road for young comedians.

Overall, Flophouse is a fresh and innovative show that offers a fresh look at the world of stand-up comedy. It's a show that is not afraid to take risks and push boundaries, and it's a great platform for showcasing diverse voices and perspectives. Whether you're already a fan of stand-up comedy or just looking for a new series to binge-watch, Flophouse is a show that you won't want to miss.
