Here TV's Latest Profiles Diversity, Love in Los Angeles

We're falling for the City of Angels.

Come Dec. 1, Here TV and Pride Media will unveil something radical. Falling For Angels, an ode to six distinct, diverse neighborhoods in Los Angeles, brings the magic of Koreatown, Bel Air, Boyle Heights, Leimert Park and Silver Lake to the nation’s largest LGBTQ premium television network.

Writer-directors with unique relationships to each L.A. locale crafted their neighborhood’s story, “including Nick Oceano (Boyle Heights), Steven Liang and Steven J. Kung (Koreatown), Waymon Boone (Leimert Park), David Millbern (Bel Air), and Billy Clift (Silver Lake),” a Here TV press release stated. Clift and Millbern also wrote and directed “Malibu,” the series’ final episode.

The cast of Angels includes a number of household names: country singer Steve Grand, Daniel Franzese (Looking), Alec Mapa (Devious Maids), Kevin Spirtas (Days of Our Lives), Blake Young-Fountain (The Skinny), Johnny Kostrey (Aquarius), Calpernia Addams (Soldier’s Girl), Adrian Nunez (30 Days with My Brother), Jason London (Dazed and Confused) and more.

“Falling for Angels celebrates the magic that makes Los Angeles the City of Angels.” says award-winning producer Paul Colichman (Gods and Monsters, Shelter). “Here TV has engaged inspiring and diverse queer writers and directors, most of whom are queer men of color, to tell their stories. Each episode features a romance apropos to a specific Los Angeles neighborhood—for Angels highlights the emotions and complex relationships that bind the queer community together.” Producing alongside Colichman is Emmy-nominated actor-producer David Millbern.

The series premieres with “Chapter 1, Boyle Heights,” and will be available to stream on Here.tv. The Here TV App is available for download on the Apple App Store, Google Play, Roku and Amazon App Store, Here TV’s cable providers and FallingForAngels.com.
