Created by Sarah-Violet Bliss and Charles Rogers, co-creators of the acclaimed TBS/Max comedy Search Party, The Band offers an inside look at the music industry centered on Oscar (Stiller), a pop impresario and talent mogul beset by scandal who is tasked with forming a new act in order to save his career – and perhaps his soul.
Stiller’s Simon Cowell-esque Oscar will be putting together a boy band, as hinted by the series’ title. Cowell was behind the creation of one of the biggest boy bands of all time, One Direction.
