There’s a moment in every great show where you stop watching and start feeling it. Where the energy coming through your screen isn’t manufactured.it’s real. It’s palpable. It’s valley coded like a PTA film. It’s left of center or LOC as we call it. That’s what we set out to build with The Perfect Parfait, and frankly, that’s the only kind of content Broken Dove Productions knows how to make.
Broken Dove Productions is a Santa Monica-based creative agency and video production company founded by director, DP, and executive producer Danny Simmons. Over the years, we’ve delivered broadcast commercials in UHD, live multicam productions in 4K, social-first digital campaigns, and brand content for Red Bull, HelloFresh, Experian, Chubbies, Sanabul, Four Seasons, and Waldorf Astoria. We know how to make things look premium because we’ve been obsessing over every frame, every cut, and every lens choice since before it was cool to talk about 4K resolution at a dinner table.
But The Perfect Parfait? This is something different. This is the creative swing. This is us minus Sterling K. Brown. We are weird, wild, and fruity like a parfait.
The show was created by Hunter Cope and developed, executive-produced, and directed by Danny Simmons and Joe Angelo Menconi.
It all started in my DMs. Hunter had a social
Here’s the setup: Host Hunter Cope sits poolside at the Parfait Palace a backyard that doubles as the most chaotic, charming talk show set on YouTube and invites some of the most compelling comedians, musicians, creators, and cultural forces in the game to pull up, grab a golden spoon, and let loose. Every guest gets a custom parfait designed by chef David Codney and inspired by who they are. If they deem it perfect, Hunter’s 401k is on the line. Real stakes. Real laughs. Real conversations.
This isn’t a clip-farm interview show. This isn’t reactive content built around trends. The Perfect Parfait is what happens when you give a world-class director creative freedom, surround him with genuinely funny and talented people, and commit fully to the craft of making something that earns a permanent place in people’s lives.
We shot The Perfect Parfait with the same intentionality we bring to every piece of brand content we produce. At Broken Dove Productions, we operate on a decoupled production model — which means we function as a full-service creative agency and production house simultaneously. Any brand, network, or streaming platform can plug into our infrastructure and leverage exactly what they need: social-first campaign content, broadcast commercials in UHD, live multicam productions in 4K, or long-form talk show formats. One company. One creative vision. Zero compromise on quality.
Season 1 brought Dave Franco, Tim Heidecker, Syd & Olivia, and more through the Parfait Palace gates. Season 2 has arrived with even more heat.
