Wilfred
Created by Adam Zwar, Jason Gann
A surreal, darkly comedic character study where a man's relationship with a dog-suited philosopher becomes the vehicle for existential self-discovery and emotional growth.
Everyone else sees Wilfred as just a dog, but Ryan sees a crude and somewhat surly, yet irrepressibly brave and honest Australian bloke in a cheap dog suit. While leading him through a series of comedic and existential adventures, Wilfred the dog shows Ryan the man how to overcome his fears and joyfully embrace the unpredictability and insanity of the world around him.
