FX’s “Adults” is bringing the messy, hilarious reality of growing up to your screen this May.
Created by Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw, the new comedy premieres May 28 on FX and streams next day on Hulu.
📅 When & Where to Watch Adults
- Premiere Date: Wednesday, May 28 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on FX
- Streaming: Full season available May 29 on Hulu and FX On Demand
- Airing Schedule: Two new episodes weekly on FX
🎭 What’s Adults About?
Let’s be real—becoming an adult is awkward, chaotic, and painfully funny.
FX’s “Adults” leans into all of it with an ensemble comedy about five twenty-somethings in New York trying to be good people, even though they’re still figuring out who they are… and what being an adult even means.
Meet the Core Crew:
- Samir (Malik Elassal)
- Billie (Lucy Freyer)
- Paul Baker (Jack Innanen)
- Issa (Amita Rao)
- Anton (Owen Thiele)
The group lives under one roof in Samir’s childhood home, where the boundaries blur and the toothbrushes occasionally swap owners.
From career fails and dinner party disasters to dating dilemmas, “Adults” captures the wins, losses, and humiliations of trying to grow up—without having it all together.
🎬 The Brains Behind the Funny
Adults is backed by a powerhouse team of comedy veterans from the FX universe:
- Creators & EPs: Ben Kronengold & Rebecca Shaw (The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon)
- Executive Producers:
- Nick Kroll (Big Mouth, The League)
- Stefani Robinson (Atlanta, What We Do in the Shadows)
- Sarah Naftalis (What We Do in the Shadows)
- Jonathan Krisel (Baskets, English Teacher)
- Alicia Van Couvering (Tiny Furniture, Drinking Buddies) under Kroll’s Good At Business banner
With this level of talent behind the scenes, “Adults” brings that sharp, offbeat FX comedy energy fans know and love.
