Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw’s “Adults” has set a May 28 premiere date on FX.
The half-hour comedy series, which stars Malik Elassal as Samir, Lucy Freyer as Billie, Jack Innanen as Paul Baker, Amita Rao as Issa and Owen Thiele as Anton, follows a group of twenty-somethings in New York trying to be good people, despite being neither “good” nor “people” just yet. The five friends crash 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.
