Housos is the story of Shazza, Dazza, Franky and Kylie — best mates from "the block". Sure, they drink away their problems, they might even have frequent domestic disputes and the occasional altercation with their neighbours, but down on the block it's all for one and one for all. Housos follows the riotously funny, day-to-day adventures of the residents of a fictional housing commission block — Sunnyvale. They battle the cops, they scam Centrelink, they even have the odd threesome, but once down with the crew in the hood then it is "Sunnyvale for life".
