Set in a retro-future world, the half-hour long series will see Crudup portraying the role of Jack, the leader of a group of traveling salesmen hawking lunar timeshares. Jack is being described as a talented and ambitious salesman whose unshakeable faith in a brighter tomorrow inspires his co-workers, revitalizes his desperate customers, but threatens to leave him dangerously lost in the very dream that sustains him.
