Friends Mike, Adam and Ethan are each at different points in their lives in terms of their romantic relationships. Mike is married to Lisa and the two have a young son. Family demands stretch Mike thin in terms of time for himself, and he finds himself getting his "me" time watching movies in his car, and thinking Lisa has no idea it's going on, even though she's all too aware.
Season 1 Episode 1 of Traffic Light resulted in a 0.00 rating in the 18-49 demographic.
Three longtime friends attempt to reconcile the irreconcilable: to balance their relationships with their need for freedom.
ETHAN is the perpetual bachelor. He loves women, and when he's in, he's all in - at least for three weeks. Charming, genuine and hopelessly independent, Ethan is finding out that as he gets older, the pool of women who are willing to take things day by day is rapidly evaporating.
ADAM recently moved in with his girlfriend, CALLIE, and is learning how vastly different "she comes over a lot" and "she lives with me" really are. Adam is discovering there isn't much "me" time any more, there's only "us" time.
MIKE is a married lawyer still trying to figure out the male-female dynamic. He wants nothing more than to be a good family man to his wife, LISA, and his infant son, but he's also trying to carve out a little space for himself. Currently that space is in his car, where he watches action movies in 15-minute chunks while telling his wife he's stuck in traffic.
