‘Adults’ Renewed for Season 3
FX is expanding the Gen Z comedy after streaming viewership doubled following the standalone prequel episode, according to the network.
- On Wednesday, FX renewed the ensemble comedy 'Adults', created by Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw, for a 16-episode third season, doubling its previous episode count. The creators signed a new overall deal with FX Productions.
- Viewership for the series jumped over 60 percent compared to its first season, prompting the renewal. FX Entertainment president Nick Grad noted the show earned critical praise and a devoted fan base embracing the friend group as their own.
- Created by Kronengold and Shaw, the series follows five friends living in a Queens childhood home navigating adulthood. The cast features Jack Innanen, Malik Elassal, Lucy Freyer, Amita Rao, and Owen Thiele as the central group.
- FX chairman John Landgraf prioritizes creative independence over industry budget cuts, arguing quality requires risk and a 'wildly inefficient process'. This renewal reflects his strategy of fostering series with long-term growth potential.
- Kronengold and Shaw, who began working with FX over six years ago, aspire to eventually include 'filler episodes' consistent with the lineage of sitcoms that came before them. The expanded episode count enables deeper storytelling with these characters.
