Overdue

Navigating Adulthood With Jillian Smart
Navigating Adulthood With Jillian Smart 2560 1440 Customatic TV

What does it really mean to be an adult? Is it something you earn by reaching a certain age, or is it more of a feeling that sneaks up on you between bills, responsibilities, and unexpected curveballs?

We sat down with Jillian Smart, who plays Hailey Jenkins on OVERDUE, to navigate those very questions. Between lighthearted scenario games and candid reflections, Jillian had us cracking up as we talked about the things that have done lately that made us feel like adults.

While her acting as Hailey shines on screen, Jillian’s natural comedic timing is on full display in this conversation. Her quick wit had everyone in stitches, proving she could easily hold her own on a comedy stage every Tuesday night.

But beyond the laughs, Jillian reflected on how Hailey’s journey in OVERDUE mirrors real-life experiences of being the new girl in town, and figuring things out in your late 20s and 30s, where adulthood isn’t as straightforward as we were once led to believe.

Every great show started with an idea that needs to be seen through. That idea for the creators of OVERDUE took them on a exciting journey that’s still going!

In this Overdue Conversation, we bring in the minds Steph Small, Mckenzie Small, and Joshua Tubbs behind the show OVERDUE and unpack how they went from idea to cast and TV series. The creators talk about everything that went into the pitch reel. Everything from writing, styling, production and creative choices; to the reason why a show like this is timely and needed.

The creators get real about what young adults are dealing with in Toronto and majority of major cities. Giving a space where young adults can see themselves on screen in a way that is authentic and understanding to the struggle.

Always packed with laughs, passion, and more. If you ever wondered what it really takes to bring a show from concept to screen, this is for you!

We swear these two aren’t stand-up comedians in their spare time, but after watching this, you might not believe us. And we would totally understand if you didn’t!

In this wildly unfiltered sit-down, Percy Anane-Dwumfour and Ryan Rosery aka Darius and Malik, the guys let loose and give us a glimpse of what they’re like outside their Overdue characters. From chaotic hypotheticals like “Would you rather be roasted by your family or every ex you’ve ever dated?” to confessing their guilty pleasures, nothing was off limits.

We even put their acting chops to the test with an impromptu accent challenge that somehow turned into a scene that should be whole new show!

Packed with laughs, unexpected wisdom, and roasts you’ll want to borrow for your next group chat, this is the guys apartment, and it’s anything but quiet!

If you ever wondered what happens when you drop three rising stars in a room, give them cameras, unfiltered questions, and a game of “Smash, Marry, Pass”? You get a candid, chaotic, and completely hilarious sit-down with the girls of Overdue.

Mckenzie Small, Jillian Smart, and Bukola Ayoka, aka Savannah, Hailey, and Jasmine don’t just play best friends/enemy roommates on screen. They bring that same energy off-screen too. In this latest interview segment powered by Customatic TV, the trio dive into behind-the-scenes memories, unscripted banter, and revelations that range from cult-joining season finales to surprisingly deep love for brussel sprouts.

Between laughs, we get glimpses of what makes Overdue special. Filming in Toronto. Representing their generation’s hustle. Juggling dreams, bills, and friendships in a world that feels like it’s always “just out of reach.”

And then we played Smash, Marry, Pass… in character.

Things went off the rails (in the best way) when the trio debated who their characters would smash, marry, or pass. Let’s just say… Darius and Malik might want to watch this with a drink in hand. And Savannah? Let’s just say she’s getting proposals left and right.

The Girls Apartment isn’t just an interview, it’s a living room takeover. It’s the kind of segment that reminds you why ensemble casts work: chemistry that doesn’t quit, a story that resonates, and actors who are clearly having the time of their lives.

So if you’re not watching Overdue yet, what are you… overdue for?
