E&S TOGETHER 2026:
Erin and Sara Foster have built one of the most complete founder-to-investor flywheels in entertainment, turning cultural influence into operating businesses and operating businesses into a venture platform.

In television and film, the sisters created and executive produce Nobody Wants This, the Netflix series that debuted at #1 globally and earned back-to-back Golden Globe nominations for best TV musical or comedy. Erin created and wrote the series from her own life, drawing on her real-world conversion to Judaism and the sisters’ dynamic as podcast co-hosts, turning personal story into one of the most valuable rom-com franchises in streaming. Critics hailed the show as a revival of the genre, with The Guardian comparing it to When Harry Met Sally and The New York Times crediting it with bringing the rom-com back to life. The show’s first two seasons have generated more than 25 billion minutes watched worldwide, with Season 2 reaching the Top 10 in 82 countries and Season 3, which Erin will join on screen as a cast member, set for this fall. The sisters hold a multi-year overall deal with 20th Television to develop, write, and executive produce original series through their banner Fatigue Sisters Productions, with an emphasis across Disney Entertainment Television platforms. The banner already has multiple projects set up across town, including a comedy series adaptation of Tinx’s bestselling novel Hotter in the Hamptons at 20th Television, a Hulu destination-wedding project, and a Netflix rom-com feature acquired in a competitive situation with the Fosters producing.

In audio, the sisters have hosted The World’s First Podcast for five years, the weekly show that inspired the podcast at the center of Nobody Wants This. It won Best Pop Culture Podcast at the 2025 iHeartPodcast Awards, beating nominees including Las Culturistas, and was honored at the 2025 Webby Awards.

In fashion, their five-year-old brand Favorite Daughter is projecting $150 million in retail sales in 2026, with e-commerce up 60% in 2025. The brand is carried at Saks, Nordstrom, and Revolve, added 800 specialty store partners in 18 months, and now operates three boutiques, with its newest opening this spring in Nashville’s popular 12South shopping district, joining locations in Beverly Hills and on New York’s Madison Avenue. The brand’s footwear line, launched with Caleres, won Footwear News’ Launch of the Year.

As investors, the Fosters are general partners of Oversubscribed Ventures, their consumer-focused venture fund. The portfolio spans consumer brands and consumer technology, including organic infant formula brand Nara Organics, prescription weight loss platform FuturHealth, better-for-you dessert brand Doughy, clinical skincare brand Exponent Beauty, robotic manicure company 10Beauty, cotton-lined diaper brand Kudos, and Andrew Yang’s Noble Mobile, where they invested alongside Scott Galloway, Square founder Jim McKelvey, and Calm CEO David Ko. Their investing instincts were forged as operators: they served as co-heads of creative at Bumble (2017-2020) through its run-up to a public listing, and were early investors and advisors to Mirror, which sold to Lululemon in 2020 for $500 million.

The sisters are also go-to ambassadors for major brands, currently fronting a national commercial campaign for Chase Sapphire Reserve, while Sara serves as Global Ambassador for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics in a long-term partnership with the Estée Lauder-owned beauty brand.

Few people have done all of it: created a global #1 show, built an award-winning podcast, scaled a nine-figure consumer brand, and backed companies through major exits.

SARA SOLO

Erin and Sara Foster were named Co-Heads of Creative for the tech app Bumble in 2020. "Erin and Sara are true forces of nature and have already brought so much value to our brand and our culture," said Whitney Wolfe Herd, Bumble Founder and CEO. They also went on to become advisors to the workout system, Mirror, which sold to Lululemon in 2020 for $500 million. Off of their successes in the tech space, Erin and Sara founded Oversubscribed Ventures, a venture fund that invests in consumer brands and technology.

In 2021, the Foster duo launched a new podcast series titled “The World’s First Podcast” covering topics including therapy, wellness, relationships, and business. Its authenticity saw the two of them hosting their first live podcast taping in February 2024 to a sold out NYC crowd. The show won an iHeartRadio Podcast Award for Best Pop Culture Podcast and was a Webby Honoree for Best Co-Hosts. They also co-host the business podcast "Oversubscribed" launched in 2024.
 
Recently, Sara and Erin serve as executive producers on the successful Netflix comedy series "Nobody Wants This," starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, currently in production on its second season and renewed for a third. The series received Golden Globe, Emmy, and Critics Choice Award nominations and is an AFI Awards Honoree. After its success, Erin and Sara signed an overall multi-year deal with 20th Television under the Disney umbrella to develop new projects, with People naming them one of its 2024 Creators of the Year. Next up, they will adapt Tinx's novel "Hotter in the Hamptons" into a comedy series, produce an untitled Netflix rom-com, and an untitled Hulu destination-wedding project is in development.

Sara has also appeared on "Entourage," "Crossing Jordan," and "CSI," in feature films "Demoted," "Psych: 9," "The Other End of the Line," Warner Bros. box office hit "The Big Bounce," and "D.E.B.S.," and appeared as a guest judge in season 21 of "Project Runway."
