Season Two Premieres 28 August Exclusively on Disney+ in South Africa
Disney+ revealed the official trailer for FX’s “Adults,” which returns for its highly-anticipated second season on 28 August, exclusively on Disney+. All eight episodes of the Original comedy from Ben Kronengold & Rebecca Shaw will be available at premiere. The first season of FX’s “Adults” and special prequel episode “Marathon Day” are currently available to stream on Disney+.
The laugh-out-loud second season will feature special guest appearances by Susie Essman, Raven-Symoné, Gaten Matarazzo, Jake Shane, Isaac Powell, Ben Marshall, Zosia Mamet and more.
FX’s “Adults” is an ensemble comedy series about a group of twenty-somethings in New York leaning on each other to navigate love, work, friendship and family. Samir (Malik Elassal), Billie (Lucy Freyer), Paul Baker (Jack Innanen), Issa (Amita Rao) and Anton (Owen Thiele) are five friends crashing together in Samir’s childhood home. Created by Ben Kronengold & Rebecca Shaw, the show puts a generational lens on the wins, losses and humiliations of being in your twenties.
Over eight episodes, the second season sees the housemates tackle a new set of real-world questions. What if the 20-year-old who inherited your fake ID is cooler than you ever were, and younger than you’ll ever be again? How do you explain to your friends that you actually love your boring office job? Why does being around your family make you regress into your worst self? And how do you ask for things to change, when you also need everything to stay the same? Together, the friends weave intricate webs of multi-player strategy just to avoid hurting someone else’s feelings. They invent elaborate workarounds for problems they’re too afraid to face head-on. It’s not so much that they keep learning the same lessons – it’s that they keep finding new ways to make mistakes. But the one thing they consistently get right: showing up for each other.
FX’s “Adults” is executive produced by Ben Kronengold & Rebecca Shaw (“The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”), Nick Kroll (“Big Mouth”, “The League”), Sarah Naftalis (“What We Do in the Shadows”), Jonathan Krisel (“Baskets,” “English Teacher”), Alicia Van Couvering (“Tiny Furniture,” “Drinking Buddies”) and Rob Rosell (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” “DAVE”). “Adults” is produced by FX Productions.
