Onyx Collective previously announced the eight-episode, half-hour Hulu Original comedy from ABC Signature with Emmy®-nominated Natasha Rothwell (The White Lotus, Insecure) to star, write and co-showrun via her overall deal with ABC Signature and Onyx Collective under the banner of her company, Big Hattie Productions. Natasha Rothwell and Vera Santamaria (PEN15) serve as co-showrunners and executive producers. Desiree Akhavan (The Bisexual) and Jude Weng (Only Murders in the Building) serve as executive producers.
