Series follows Astrid and James as they raise their two young children in the city, while struggling to hold onto their pre-kid life. Illustrating the hilarious and varied ways kids can wreck happiness, alter plans, annihilate goals and dreams, and force parents to re-invent their lives, the series also explores how maybe that re-invented life is somewhat okay, too. Nowhere near as good as that old, really great life. But still kind of nice.

Everyone Else Burns revolves around the Lewises, a strictly religious family who believe the world will end within the decade. Patriarch David longs for the church to promote him. Long-suffering Fiona hungers for a life beyond sermons and squash. Aaron is a model young believer — except his drawings feature the rest of the family burning in hell. And anxious 17-year-old Rachel is about to fall for someone who could save her social life, but also damn her soul. Cast includes Simon Bird, Kate O’Flynn, Harry Connor and Amy James-Kelly.
FBOY ISLAND

The women will navigate the dating pool together with the hope of finding a lasting love connection. Hosted by Nikki Glaser. (A spinoff series, FGirl Island, is slated for midseason.)
