With so many shows coming out every day, it can be hard for a new series to grab our attention. It usually takes an intriguing plot, a high-profile cast or a strong writer attached.
Now, if a show has all three? Then consider us quite fascinated.
That is the case with a new show premiering on FX, titled The Premise. This anthology series is written and directed by B.J. Novak, who was one of the writers and directors on The Office. He also starred as Ryan Howard on the comedy classic.
Besides having Novak behind the scenes, The Premise is full of stars, including Tracee Ellis Ross, Daniel Dae Kim, Ed Asner, Lucas Hedges, Ben Platt and so many more. In the official writeup for the series, it says, “The Premise is a bold and provocative half-hour anthology of standalone stories about the times we live in...Guns, identity, social justice, sex, capitalism, revenge, love, fame, social media, butt plugs – nothing is off limits.”
