Creators and Production
Adults was created by Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw, who previously wrote for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Originally titled Snowflakes, the show was retitled Adults before its announcement in April 2025.
FX’s official description calls it “an ensemble comedy series about a group of twenty-somethings in New York trying to be good people, despite being neither ‘good’ nor ‘people’ yet”.
Premise and What to Expect
In each episode, the group tackles situations everyone faces when growing up. They try to find jobs, use the healthcare system, host dinner parties, and date via apps.
“Nothing about the real world is simple, and all their best intentions tend to make things worse,” FX teases.
Expect humor from everyday mishaps and honest moments that feel true to life.
Trailer and Promotional Material
FX released the official trailer on May 8, 2025. The trailer highlights the group’s close bonds and chaotic living situation. The key art shows the five friends laughing together in a tiny kitchen, highlighting the show’s mix of warmth and awkward comedy.
Guest Stars and Special Appearances
Alongside the core five, the first season of Adults features guest spots by:
· Charlie Cox
· Julia Fox
· D’Arcy Carden

Each brings unique energy, playing with coworkers, dates, or neighbors who throw the main group off balance.
