With guidance from Benny&#8217;s older sister (Mary Beth Barone) and her campus-legend boyfriend (Adam DiMarco), Benny and Carmen juggle horrible hookups, flavored vodka, and fake IDs. Deeply funny and personal, the show explores the lengths to which we all overcompensate while on the path to finding out who we really are.<\/p>\n<p>Overcompensating is created, written, and executive produced by Benito Skinner. Scott King also serves as showrunner and executive producer. Jonah Hill, Matt Dines, and Ali Goodwin executive produce for Strong Baby. Charli XCX serves as executive producer and executive music producer.<\/p>\n<p>\r\n      <table id=\"tmdb-pro\">\r\n        <tbody>\r\n          <tr>\r\n            <td class=\"tmdb-pro-poster\" width=\"20%\" rowspan=\"3\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/image.tmdb.org\/t\/p\/w300_and_h450_bestv2\/\/9g5QRUSPBK4ABLzhO9D8ooir6tS.jpg\"><\/td>\r\n            <td>\r\n              <h3><b>Overcompensating<\/b><\/h3>\r\n            <\/td>\r\n          <\/tr>\r\n          <tr><td><span><b>Network:<\/b> Prime Video<\/span><span><b>Genre:<\/b> Comedy<\/span><span><b>Seasons:<\/b> 1<\/span><span><b>Episodes:<\/b> 8<\/span><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><h5><b>Overview<\/b><\/h5><p>Closeted former football player and homecoming king Benny becomes fast friends with Carmen, a high school outsider on a mission to fit in at all costs.
