Geub(2019)

Geub is a Belgian comedy series following Philippe Geubels, a popular Flemish comedian whose wife abandons him for William Van Bronkhorst, a charming Dutch retiree thirty years her senior. Humiliated and depressed, Philippe leans heavily on his mother Sonja, who offers emotional support and endless baskets of freshly ironed laundry. His loyal crew—technician Dikke Dirk and best friend Pannenkoek—attempt to lift his spirits, though their efforts prove largely futile. The show explores Philippe's attempts to win back his dignity while navigating the absurdity of his situation, anchored by the unwavering support of those closest to him. Dark humor and genuine pathos blend as Philippe grapples with betrayal and loss.
