Armisen and Rudolph are executive producing and starring in a new Amazon comedy series from Matt Hubbard and Master of None co-creator Alan Yang. No further details about the plot have been released, but Deadline reports the two stars will be playing a married couple.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph? Will you watch their new Amazon series?
Yeah, longevity isn’t really Amazon’s “thing”, but this does sound interesting. I nearly passed over it because I thought it was just another cooking show!
I would have to say while I Love both stars I can’t watch anything new on Amazon. Cancelling Zelda with a Z, and the Last Tycoon not because they were bad but rather too expensive has caused me to lose faith in Amazon Series. I will stick with Netflix they stick with what they promise. I’m expecting Mozart in the Jungle and Red Rock to receive the same treatment as the above 2 series.
you mean like netflix cancelled sense 8 and marco polo because they were too expensive? bleh, they are all the same.
