Jesse and Jesse - Season 1 (2012)

Meet Jesse. He's an ivy-league educated journalist stuck writing fluff pieces for a third-rate newspaper in a nowheresville town. Overworked and underpaid, Jesse's dreams of success are slowly being deferred by an antagonistic boss, unrequited love, and a crazy landlord. When the threat of unemployment and homelessness looms overhead, Jesse reaches out and meets someone that will completely change his life. This is...Jesse and Jesse.

Still reeling from the debacle of the Howling Tree with their new-found friendship surprisingly intact, the Jesses find themselves at a loss to come up with an intriguing story for this week's paper. That friendship is further tested when the Editor reveals the financial hole the paper has sunk into. In a bid to win more readership and hopefully a renewed operating budget, the Editor forces them to cover the opening of a new deli in town. However, they soon find out that there's more to this town than sandwiches and ghost crimes.

As the paper continues to lose money, a rash of missing persons cases gives the Editor hope for another sensational story. With a minor lead and not much time, the Jesses are forced to go undercover to investigate the nefarious plot. However, a smooth talking seductress just may derail those plans and possibly a friendship.
