Something new arrived on YouTube on February 20, 2025 — and it tastes exactly as good as it looks. The Perfect Parfait is the comedy talk show nobody knew they needed and everybody keeps watching. Created and hosted by Hunter Cope, directed and executive produced by Danny Simmons and Joe Angelo Menconi, and produced by Broken Dove Productions, it’s a poolside interview experience that blends celebrity conversation, culinary craft, sketch comedy, and the kind of unpredictable chaos that only happens when genuinely funny people stop performing and start actually talking.
The Season 1 trailer sets up everything: the stakes, the format, the guests, and the one question every episode is built around — will Chef David Codney’s custom-crafted parfait be declared perfect? If it is, Hunter Cope surrenders his entire 401k to the Chef. In cash.
A deliciously layered interview show filming at The Parfait Palace — the Encino backyard of director Danny Simmons — where every episode is captured in 4K full frame and finished with a professional color grade by Broken Dove Productions.
