9 hot photos of the cast of 'Overcompensating'
Overcompensating became an instant hit on Amazons Prime Video streaming service, not only due to the entertaining writing on the show, but also because the cast is great to look at. It seems as though the shows creator and star, Benito Skinner, plucked out the most attractive actors from across different genres and corners of the internet. Not only does the cast consist of hot people, but its made up almost entirely of queer people!For those who havent watched, the show follows a closeted college freshman (Skinner), who attends the same college as his older sister (his real-life best friend, Mary Beth Barone). There, he meets Carmen (Wally Baram), a fellow freshman who is rooming with an outlandish, yet grounded roommate named Hailee (Holmes). Throughout the first season, audiences watch Benny stumble through the awkward moments of living on his own for the first time and coming to terms with his sexuality.This show fits squarely into the slow-moving trend of television shows centered around queer characters and being played by LGBTQ+ actors (Yes, that was shade towards Queer as Folk!). The show, thankfully, received the green light for a second season, but there's no word yet on when it will be released. In the meantime, here are some photos of the cast members, many of whom appeared on this years Out 100 list, flaunting their good looks.Owen ThieleSee on InstagramOwen Thiele is one of the busiest actors in Hollywood, starring in two critically-acclaimed shows following a group of young adults.
