Freeform announced its January schedule, which includes the series premiere of the highly anticipated comedy Single Drunk Female, from Jenni Konner and Simone Finch, with a two-episode premiere on Thursday, Jan. 20, and new episodes of grown-ish on Thursday, Jan. 27. All titles will be available to stream on Hulu the day after the premiere. Single Drunk Female will debut with back-to-back episodes on Thursday, Jan. 20, starting at 10 p.m. After its premiere, the series will air new episodes Thursdays at 10:30 p.m., following grown-ish. In this dramedy, a public flame-out at a New York media company forces 20-something alcoholic Samantha Fink to seize the only chance she has to sober up and avoid jail time: moving back home with her overbearing mother, Carol. Back in Greater Boston, Samantha restarts her life, working at the local grocery store while surrounded by all of the triggers that made her drink in the first place. Confronted with remnants of her old life, including run-ins with her perfect former best friend, who is now dating her ex, Samantha sets out on a path to move past her worst self and figure out her best self. Kinda. Single Drunk Female stars Sofia Black-D'Elia, Ally Sheedy, Rebecca Henderson, Sasha Compère, Lily Mae Harrington and Garrick Bernard.
Freeform's number one comedy series, Emmy(R)-nominated grown-ish, will return for the conclusion of senior year on Thursday, Jan. 27, at 10 p.m. The countdown to graduation is on and senior year at Cal U is in full swing. From unexpected hookups to wild nights with the crew, new life choices are on the horizon. Let the celebrations--and the complications--commence! The series stars Yara Shahidi, Trevor Jackson, Francia Raisa, Emily Arlook, Jordan Buhat, Chloe Bailey, Halle Bailey, Luka Sabbat and Diggy Simmons.
Starz announced that the new genre-bending horror comedy Shining Vale will premiere on Sunday, March 6, 2022 at 10PM ET/PT across all Starz platforms in the U.S. and Canada, and will air day and date internationally on the StarzPlay premium streaming platform across its complete footprint in Europe, Latin America and Japan.
