"Five roommates. One apartment. Zero adults."
DudeZ is a millennial roommate comedy set in a cramped Astoria, NYC apartment shared by five thirty-somethings who are all, in their own spectacular ways, refusing to grow up.
There's Sage, the hopeless romantic nursing a very public heartbreak; Gino, the champagne-soaked lothario; Tammy, the blunt truth-teller pushing everyone toward therapy; Julz, the couch-bound stoner gamer; and Albe, the theater nerd who treats the living room like the Globe. Presiding over all of it is Giraffrey — a stuffed giraffe who silently judges every questionable decision.
Equal parts absurd and heartfelt, DudeZ turns the everyday chaos of shared living into big comedy about friendship, ego, and the family you accidentally build. Created and written by AJ Dwayne for Loud Stone Entertainment.
Meet the DudeZ
Sage
The hopeless romantic of the group — fresh off proposing to Mercedes, a woman who was never technically his girlfriend. Big heart, questionable timing.
Gino Alfredo Bibby
The self-styled lothario with a bottomless flute of “champahhgin.” Equal parts charm, delusion, and impeccable (in his mind) taste.
Tammy
The blunt, no-nonsense truth-teller who keeps everyone honest — and keeps pushing the guys toward the therapy they clearly need.
Julz
The easygoing stoner gamer whose couch is the group’s gravitational center. Played by DudeZ creator AJ Dwayne.
Albe
The resident theater nerd, forever quoting King Lear and treating the apartment like his personal stage.
Giraffrey
The apartment’s silent sixth roommate — a stuffed giraffe who judges every decision without saying a single word.
