History Series / ThreeBusyDebras

Debra (Sandy Honig) is the shortest, but also the [[OlderThanTheyLook oldest]] and the [[RichBitch meanest]] of the three. She usually functions as TheLeader, occasionally sliding over to TeamMom... not because she's so caring and nurturing but because she's an unrepentant ControlFreak. She usually wears a dress.

Debra (Alyssa Stonoha) is "the middle Debra" and is [[AloofDarkHairedGirl aloof and emotionally distant]], probably thanks to being trapped in a [[AwfulWeddedLife loveless marriage]]. She has a son, Trayden, whom she [[AbusiveParents doesn't really care that much about]]. She usually wears a pantsuit.

And Debra (Mitra Jouhari) is the tallest of the Debras, but also the [[TheDitz stupidest]], [[WomanChild most childish and least emotionally mature]]. After her husband's death she's starved for affection and attention and has a tendency to get extremely clingy, turn into a StalkerWithACrush, or [[ExtremeOmnisexual hit on anyone she finds attractive, be they male or female]]. She usually wears a romper.

* OneSteveLimit: Averted hilariously. All three main characters are named Debra.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: The three Debras are not only terrible people in general, they're terrible friends to each other. Dress Debra in particularly will mistreat, boss around and verbally abuse the other two, often with SugaryMalice, and has no regard for anyone but herself. Pantsuit Debra is aloof an uncaring, and will repeatedly express her disdain for the others. Romper Debra is the nicest of the three (to the point where they treat her as an ExtremeDoormat) and the only one who seems to genuinely enjoy her friends' company, but she's a clingy {{Yandere}} StalkerWithACrush and not much respect for personal space. And yet, they stick together, none of them able to break out of their mutually abusive, but oddly co-dependent, friendship.

* AmbiguouslyBi: All the Debras are married (or in Romper Debra's case, a widow) and are clearly attracted to men... but there's tons of sexual tension between the three as well. Mostly it's from the affection-starved Romper Debra, who can act like a {{Yandere}} towards her friends, but Pantsuit Debra has her moments as well... for example, they're both clearly crushing on Dress Debra's sister Barbra (who at one point slaps both their butts, and they seem to like it). The second-season episode "To Have Debra, To Hold Debra" goes to town with it and turns the lesbian subtext into plain text; in that episode Romper Debra and Pantsuit Debra fall in love and get married, only for a jealous Dress Debra to seduce Pantsuit Debra in order to break them up. Of course this episode was a ShowWithinAShow, or AllJustADream, or a show about a dream, so it didn't actually happen and the canonical sexualities of the three Debras remain ambiguous.

* BrutalHonesty:

* NiceMeanAndInbetween: Though all the Debras are pretty bad people; extemely self-centered and with very little concern for anyone else, they do form this dynamic as a trio. Romper Debra, who is mostly an InnocentlyInsensitive {{Womanchild}}, is Nice; Dress Debra, who is a RichBitch ControlFreak is Mean; and Pantsuit Debra, who's an AloofDarkHairedGirl bordering on IceQueen, is Inbetween.

* TheGhost: All three Debras occasionally refer to their husbands, but none of the husbands arre ever seen. In the case of Romper Debra's husband, he's specifically said to be dead, but the other two seem to be alive... just not on-screen. Pantsuit Debra in particular will mention her husband every so often, usually to casually inform how terrible her marriage is.

* "To Have Debra, To Hold Debra" ends with everyone except Romper Debra dead. Of course that was AllJustADream.
* The final episode ends with a meteor hitting the town of Lemoncurd, killing all the Debras. The rest of the town is also implied to have died, with the possible exception of Pantsuit Debra's son Trayden, last seen hiding in an underground bunker with his "other mom."

* AmbiguouslyBi: All the Debras are married (or in Romper Debra's case, a widow) and are clearly attracted to men... but there's tons of sexual tension between the three as well.

And Debra (Mitra Jouhari) is the tallest of the Debras, but also the [[TheDitz stupidest]],[[WomanChild most childish and least emotionally mature]]. After her husband's death she's starved for affection and attention and has a tendency to get extremely clingy, turn into a StalkerWithACrush, or [[ExtremeOmnisexual hit on anyone she finds attractive, be they male or female]]. She usually wears a romper.

* {{Womanchild}}: Romper Debra can lapse into this; she's the most childlike of the Debras and sometimes gets directly childish. Pantsuit Debra is usually more adult, but can lapse into childish behavior alongside Romper Debra, forcing Dress Debra to act as their stern "Mother." In "The Honorable Order of the Debras," it's shown that Romper Debra and Pantsuit Debra basically regress into a pair of bickering kids when Dress Debra isn't around, which is why the episode ends with Dress Debra legally adopting them both as her children.

Debra (Sandy Honig) is the shortest, but also the [[OlderThanTheyLook oldest]] and the [[RichBitch meanest]] of the three. She usually functions as the ring leader, occasionally sliding over to TeamMom... not because she's so caring and nurturing but because she's an unrepentant ControlFreak. She usually wears a dress.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Dress Debra is at ''least'' sixty years old, but looks to be in her early thirties.

* {{Womanchild}}: Romper Debra can lapse into this; she's the most childlike of the Debras and sometimes gets directly childish. In "The Honorable Order of the Debras," Pantsuit Debra also begins acting childishly, and the two basically regress into a pair of bickering siblings, with Dress Debra as their stern "mother." The episode ends with Dress Debra legally adopting them as her children.

* RichBitch: None of the Debras seem to be struggling financially, but Dress Debra plays the RitchBitch trope the straightest. She seems like she lives the most luxurious life and is by far the meanest and most likely to think that the rules simply don't apply to her.

-->'''Dress Debra:''' I’d rather ''swim in shit'' than spend one more minute— ''[Notices Romper Debra behind her and turns around, with a bright smile]''— in your ugly, ugly home! Debra! We were just talking about you behind your back!
* ControlFreak: Dress Debra— to the point of ''bugging her house'' to her what her friends say when she leaves, and keeping a supply of Understudies to replace her friends when they spend time away from her.

''Three Busy Debras'' is a live-action adult comedy series created by Mitra Jouhari, Alyssa Stonoha, and Sandy Honig. The series follows the crazy and surreal misadventures of three housewives, all named Debra and their odd travails around the off-kilter suburbia of Lemoncurd.

* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Pantsuit Debra, the tallest of the Debras, has pale skin, and is very emotionally detached.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: The three Debras are not only terrible people in general, they're terrible friends to each other. Dress Debra in particularly will mistreat, boss around and verbally abuse the other two, often with SugaryMalice, and has no regard for anyone but herself. Pantsuit Debra is aloof an uncaring, and will repeatedly express her disdain for the others (especially Romper Debra). Romper Debra is the nicest of the three and the only one who seems to genuinely enjoy her friends' company, but she's a clingy {{Yandere}} StalkerWithACrush and not much respect for personal space. And yet, they stick together, none of them able to break out of their mutually abusive, but oddly co-dependent, friendship.
