How Retirement House Took Over TikTok

Retirement House

For the first time ever, the cast of Retirement House sat down with their creators, Adi Azran and Brandon Chase, to share the crazy story behind the show's conception. They talk about auditioning 400 senior citizens, how they gained a million followers in two weeks, share untold stories from being on set together, and give an inside look to what goes on behind the scenes.
