TV show description:
A workplace comedy series, the American Auto TV show was created by Justin Spitzer (Superstore).
Set in Detroit, the story finds the corporate executives of Payne Motors at a crossroads — adapt to the changing times or be sent to the junkyard.
Shaking things up is the new CEO, Katherine Hastings (Gasteyer), whose leadership, experience, and savvy is only slightly offset by her complete lack of knowledge about cars.
Luckily, Katherine’s team has some of the best minds in the business — when they aren’t fighting or trying to outwit each other. Those working at the company include Sadie (Dyer), the type-A head of communications; Dori (X Mayo), the sweet assistant to the CEO; Cyrus (Washinton), the Chief Producer Designer; Elliot (Ker), the Chief Sales Officer; Wesley (Barinholtz), the direct descendant of the company’s founder; and Jack (White), an assembly line worker.
From the corporate office to the factory floor, the crew of Payne Motors is driving home the laughs.
Episode #23 — Judgement Day
Katherine and her team make one last effort to raise the Payne stock and save their jobs by rallying behind the launch of the Pika. When global events cause the whole market to crash, Katherine loses hope that Payne will ever recover.
First aired: April 18, 2023.
