FXhas announced that their latest comedy,Snowflakes, has received a series order. The project was created byBen KronengoldandRebecca Shaw, and it will featureNick Kroll,Jonathan KriselandStefani Robinsonas executive producers. The first season of the upcoming show is currently set to debut next year. The premise of the project will follow an ensemble of codependent housemates trying to be good people. But their goal will prove to be harder than they anticipated. Krisel himself directed the pilot, and the network liked it enough to approve the development of the entire first season.
Some of the stars ofSnowflakeshave already been cast by FX. Samir (Malik Elassal), Billie (Lucy Freyer), Paul Baker (Jack Innanen), Issa (Amita Rao) and Anton (Owen Thiele) will be some of the characters who will entertain the world once the series premieres next year. The fact that the comedy will feature an ensemble cast will open up plenty of storytelling possibilities. Elassal previously appeared in some episodes ofResident AlienandJoe Pickett, with the performer ready to shine under the spotlight ofSnowflakes. Before being cast in the upcoming comedy, Freyer was featured in a role inPaint, the movie that sawOwen Wilsonstepping into the shoes of Carl Nargle.
The creators behind ofSnowflakeshave plenty of experience with writing comedic scenarios. Kronenglod and Shaw have spent the past few years of their careers working onThe Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The talk show that features celebrities and unpredictable dynamics allowed Kronengold and Shaw to develop their writing skills, before they decided to take a risk with the development ofSnowflakes. It remains to be seen if their attempt to develop a pilot will prove to be a success, asSnowflakesjoins FX’s slate of comedy series.
