'Work In Progress,' set in sunny Los Angeles, is a six-part, half-hour comedy that follows a fictionalized version of Tay as she decides to quit her dead-end retail job and pursue a career as a 'Documentarian Sociologist.' In this first season, she seeks to answer the age-old question: 'why do we work?' Throughout the season, her character interviews a range of people such as farmers, strippers, musicians, scientists, painters, professors, and many others.
