Prime Video has ordered its first multi-camera comedy series from someone who knows the format extremely well.
The Amazon-owned streamer has picked up DINKS from Friends co-creator Marta Kauffman and Hannah K.S. Canter. Amazon MGM Studios, Lionsgate Television, Kauffman and Canter’s Okay Goodnight and Publicis Media Content Innovation, the ad giant’s entertainment arm, are producing the series, which will be heavily improvised.
June Diane Raphael (Elle) and Paul Scheer (Black Monday), improv veterans and a real-life married couple, will star in DINKS (an acronym for Double Income, No Kids). Jon Gabrus is also a series regular.
“I’ve always said I wouldn’t do another multi-cam unless someone was able to reinvent it. Okay Goodnight and I got tired of waiting, and decided we should do it ourselves,” said Kauffman in a statement. “It’s what I hoped it would be: unique, hilarious and warm. Shooting this show is like being on a roller coaster in the dark. You have no idea where it’s going to go, but you know it’s going to be fun.”
