Hot Commodities is a pilot spec script that introduces a group of privileged college students who make their house into a brothel after their parents' firm goes belly-up. It is dramatic comedy on the bizarre and shallow relationships within today's college generation, and the series asks, "how detached can we become from our bodies and what are the ramifications?"
