FX’s Hit Gen Z Sitcom ‘Adults’ Is Back For Season 2

  • On Thursday, August 27, 2026, the sitcom Adults returns for its second season on Hulu and FXX, created by series creators Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw.
  • The ensemble comedy features housemates Samir , Billie , Paul Baker , Issa , and Anton living in Samir's childhood home in Bayside, Queens.
  • Season 2 is sharper and more self-assured, moving beyond mimicking hangout sitcom tropes to focus on clearer conflict while balancing raunchy humor with surprising moments of tenderness.
  • Guest stars including Jake Shane , Gaten Matarazzo , and Zosia Mamet join the cast as characters face predicaments like meeting fake ID inheritors.
  • Despite a constricting television landscape limiting seasons to eight episodes, the series offers meta-commentary on the 'friends in New York' trope while forging its own comedic identity.
