Pretty/Handsome is a 2008 television pilot by Ryan Murphy that was not picked up to series by FX. [2] [3] According to Vogue, Murphy "was devastated when the studio he was working with decided not to pursue the show because they felt their advertisers wouldn’t support it". [4]
Bob, a married person with two sons, has to come out to her family as a transgender woman. [5]
The project began shooting in the end of October 2007. The original title of the project was 4 oz., but was later changed to Pretty/Handsome. FX did not pick the show to be a regular series. [6] After Pretty/Handsome, Murphy worked on Glee because he "wanted to develop a wholesome comedy that the entire family can watch". [7]
