Background [edit]
On August 6, 2013, Rae began working on a comedy series pilot with co-creator Larry Wilmore. The show was planned to be about the awkward experiences of a contemporary African-American woman, and the pair eventually settled on the current title of Insecure.[19] HBO picked up the pilot on October 15, 2015, and it was subsequently greenlit for production.[20]
At HBO's 2016 Television Critics Association session, which featured Rae, show runner Prentice Penny, and executive producer Melina Matsoukas, Issa Rae explained that the series will examine "the complexities of 'Blackness' and the reality that you can't escape being Black." She also mentioned, in regard to the potential mainstream reaction to the series:
We're just trying to convey that people of color are relatable. This is not a hood story. This is about regular people living life.[21]
Raphael Saadiq created original music for the first season. Solange Knowles served as music consultant for the show and was introduced by Matsoukas, who directed the music video for Knowles's song "Losing You".[22]
Plot [edit]
Within the first season, eight episodes unpacked the story of the Black female experience from the perspective of two female protagonists, Issa (Issa Rae) and Molly (Yvonne Orji), who have been best friends with each other since their college days at Stanford.[23] Both in their late 20s, they navigate career and relationship experiences while living in their hometown of South Los Angeles, California.[24] The two share a close bond, and throughout the show, they deal with internal struggles, their friendship and the African American community.[21] Issa works at a non-profit that benefits middle-school aged students of color called "We Got Y'all". She struggles to put the spark back into her relationship with her long-term boyfriend, Lawrence (Jay Ellis), who has been slacking in their relationship since his start-up company failed.[25] Molly is a corporate attorney who has career success but difficulty with dating men. The half-hour series explores social and racial issues that relate to the contemporary American Black experience.[26]
