''The Real Bros of Simi Valley'' is an American scripted television series based in
Simi Valley, California. The satirical comedy both pays homage to and lampoons the culture of
Southern California, and several stereotypes and tropes of unscripted reality shows, with hyperbolic emphasis on exaggerated dramatic elements, and canned infighting among the show's cast.
Jimmy Tatro and Christian A. Pierce co-created and executive produce the series and have written every episode. After directing season one with Michael J. Gallagher, Tatro directed every episode of seasons two and three. Tatro also stars alongside Nick Colletti,
Tanner Petulla, and
Cody Ko as the titular "Bros", with supporting cast members including Colleen Donovan, Peter Gilroy, Monette Moio, Monica Joy Shere, and Maddy Whitby.
The series follows the lives of four friends ten years after their high school graduation.
The first season was released on
YouTube and included four episodes. The second season was released November 30, 2018 on
Facebook Watch.
The third season was released on February 14, 2020. Other executive producers include Mike Rosenstein and
