Not You Again
Two 30-something singles stuck in a time loop are forced to relive the worst days of their lives, so they team up to find a way to break the cycle. For fans of Palm Springs and Oona Out of Order, NOT YOU AGAIN offers a fresh new take on the Groundhog Day story.
Carly has woken up hungover the day after her dad's funeral exactly 225 times. And she’s not the only one: everyone in her small hometown is also on the same repeating time loop.
Every day is Saturday, July 23rd for everyone around her. And most people have given into the loop—after all, when you relive the same day every day, you have nothing to lose. Day drinking until you pass out? Yes. Partner swapping? Sure. Eating whatever you want while binge-watching a full season of Grey’s Anatomy? Okay! There are no repercussions since the loop restarts everyday.
But Carly wants out. Unlike everyone else, she doesn’t want to waste her life away reliving the worst day ever in the small town she always hated visiting. She wants to go back to LA, writing her novels, and her land of endless milk options; she’s determined to find a way to break the cycle.
She discovers an unexpected kindred spirit in Adam, the mortician she met at her dad's funeral. July 22nd was also one of the worst days of his life: his fiancée admitted to cheating on him with his best friend. Every day Adam wakes up on July 23rd on the sofa while his ex is still asleep in their bed, a constant reminder of her betrayal and their breakup. There was a light at the end of the tunnel—he was all set to leave for a summer internship at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory before starting a grad program in astrophysics at Caltech. July 23rd was supposed to be his last day working for his parents at the funeral home, and the start of his new life as an astronomer. Adam is a man of science, and like Carly, he believes there must be a way out.
Together, Carly and Adam team up to find out why they can’t seem to escape July 23rd. And in finding a way out, they also find their way to each other.
