“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. Samir, Billie, Paul Baker, Issa, and Anton are five friends crashing together in Samir’s childhood home, where they share their meals, anxieties, and, occasionally, toothbrushes.”
“The show puts a slightly heightened twist on the wins, losses, and humiliations of starting out in the adult world. Whether they’re trying to get ahead at work, navigating the healthcare system, hosting a dinner party, or dating in the age of Find My Friends, the group is finding that nothing about the real world is simple, and all their best intentions tend to make things worse.”
The series stars Malik Elassal as Samir, Lucy Freyer as Billie, Owen Thiele as Anton, Jack Innanen as Paul Baker, and Amita Rao as Issa. Charlie Cox makes recurring appearances as Mr. Teacher, and Rachel Marsh plays Carly. The show has been created by Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw.
Adults is available to stream on FX on Hulu.
