About Lost Sheep

George is a quietly plucky sheep who wanted more out of life than what the flock offered, and so set out on his own to explore the world. He quickly made a fast friend in roommate Joe, a quiet and genial beret-wearing gent. Their attempted good deed – liberating an unhappy obnoxious parrot from a pet shop – came back to haunt them, in a good way, when the aptly-named Frank refused to fly away and turned their quiet duo into a noisy trio. These unlikely comrades, surrounded by colorful friends and peculiar extended families, face the befuddling challenges each day brings as they ponder their quirky way through life.
