He is recruited by the mysterious leader of an underground group of hackers to join their organization. Elliot’s task?

White Famous (s1, Showtime)
Talented young comic Floyd Mooney is on the rise in the industry, which forces him to navigate the treacherous waters of maintaining his credibility while crossing over into becoming “white famous.” His frustrated agent, Malcolm, wants Floyd to do whatever it takes to succeed as Floyd’s roommate, Ron, remains the voice of reason amidst the chaos of differing opinions.
