I strongly suggest you closely study the notes you got on your previous post of this same concept, as all most all previous comments still apply to this last draft of your logline.
>>>his depression quickly turns into hilarity.
Dramatic problem solved! End of story, end of series!
There needs to be something about starting over in ?Bangkok that??is a continual font of weekly woe for the protagonist. ?As every good comic knows, comedy comes from pain and conflict. Comedy is just tragedy with a punch line. ?The generic comedy scenario that would seem appropriate is the fish-out-of-water.
Within that scenario the protagonist needs to be acting out a?defining ?flaw, a weakness a blind spot ?that keeps getting him in trouble (and generating laughs) episode after episode. ?What is his defining character flaw? ?Is he a compulsive womanizer (that’s why his wife dumped him?), an obsessive-compulsive neurotic, a lovable loser?
