With publisher Doug Renetti (Jake Johnson), she launches the first women-only erotic magazine in history, which turns out to be more complex than they’d like to think. 

Shane Brody, played by Taylor Zakhar Perez, is a firefighter and aspiring model who auditions for Joyce’s magazine spread. His attractive appearance and laid-back demeanor make him popular with all he meets. The premiere of Minx aired on HBO Max on March 17, 2022, and the show’s second season was ordered in May 2022. However, HBO Max canceled Minx in December 2022, although production on Season 2 was already underway. Nonetheless, Starz opted to pick up the series, so the debut of Season 2 is scheduled on 21 July 2023. 

7. Young & Hungry (2015)

The second season’s Young & Hungry episode, “Young & Oh, Brother!” is an entertaining mix of comedy, drama, and kitchen mayhem. The episode is elevated by the presence of Taylor Zakhar Perez, who plays Benji Rodriguez. Benji, Sofia’s brother, visits San Francisco, and he’s all grown up, unlike the young boy Gabi remembers. Despite Sofia’s caution to avoid her younger brother, Gabi is overjoyed when the adult Benji asks her out on a date. Will Gabi’s advances put a strain on their friendship? Meanwhile, Josh and Yolanda will have to get resourceful if they want to pull off a bachelor party for Elliott on such short notice. 

However, when they implement their plan using a gay dating app, they all end up with more than they bargained for. Perez gives an excellent performance as Benji. He infuses the role with charisma, comedy, and honesty, making him an instantly endearing on-screen presence. Perez’s comedic timing is impeccable, and he consistently delivers hilarious lines without compromising his character’s integrity. His interactions with the other characters, especially Gabi, the show’s protagonist, are the source of most of the episode’s humor and warmth. Their on-screen connection is undeniable, and their interactions are among the episode’s most memorable moments. 

6. iCarly (2012)

Taylor Zakhar Perez starred in an episode of the renowned Nickelodeon sitcom iCarly, titled “iGet Banned.” This episode, the fifth of the sixth season, debuted in 2012 and followed Carly (Miranda Cosgrove) and Freddie (Nathan Kress), who are irritated when they find that their apartment building’s doorman, the unpleasant Lewbert (Jeremy Rowley), has returned. Meanwhile, at the Groovy Smoothie, T-Bo (BooG!e) bans Sam (Jennette McCurdy) and Gibby (Noah Munck) for refusing to pay for their smoothies since they did not order the special bell peppers he included.

Keith, portrayed by Taylor Zakhar Perez, is a guy who has feelings for Carly, which Carly finds appealing. At the Groovy Smoothie, he appears when Carly orders a caffeinated drink in an attempt to appear more mature and attractive to him. As a result, some humorous situations arise, adding to the comedy nature of the show. Despite its brevity, Perez’s appearance in iCarly was a significant professional milestone. His performance as Keith was a launching point for his acting career and demonstrated his comedic chops.

5. Embeds (2017)

They all work for rival networks and spend their whole time on the road covering Dobson’s primary campaign. While Embeds is a sitcom that intentionally mocks journalists, it does an excellent job of depicting the fast-paced world of political journalism, the isolation of the campaign road, and the hilarity of digital-era publishing. The witty script and snappy dialogue in Embeds are two of the show’s many lauded qualities. 

4.1Up (2022)

Marco is also tremendously gifted and regarded as one of the most incredible dancers in the school, having won the “OMG he’s so hot” competition.

Marco may be well-liked, but he doesn’t fit the mold of the usual high school heartthrob. He’s a nice guy who doesn’t care where he stands on the high school popularity ladder, preferring to devote himself to his true love of music and dancing. In addition, he has a tender side that shines through most when he is with his loved ones. Marco becomes a trusted confidant of Elle when her relationship with Noah (Jacob Elordi) deteriorates over the distance. When the two decide to compete together in a Dance Dance Mania tournament, their friendship takes a romantic turn.
