Benito Skinner Teases ‘Overcompensating’ Season 2 Has “A Maturity To It” & “Feels More Queer” As Benny Ventures Out Of The Closet

Article excerpt

Benito Skinner says the second season of his Prime Video dramedy Overcompensating, which follows a closeted jock navigating college life, will feel "more queer" as his character Benny comes out further. The semi-autobiographical series, which also stars Wally Baram as outsider Carmen, has matured in tone for its sophomore outing. Skinner's comments suggest the show will deepen its exploration of identity and friendship as Benny's self-discovery accelerates.
