VIDEO: First Look - New Original Sketch Comedy Series NETFLIX PRESENTS: THE CHARACTERS

By: Feb. 02, 2016



One show. Eight comedians. Multiple personalities. In Netflix PRESENTS: THE CHARACTERS, the next generation of comedians get a chance that only Netflix could offer: the opportunity to create their own 30-minute episodes and do whatever they want. No rules. No limits. Each comedian writes and appears in his/her episode, presenting a series of sketches that veer wildly from Bachelor parodies, to music videos, to biblical spoofs... all in the name of outlaw comedy. Get a first look below!

The Characters features: Lauren Lapkus (Orange Is The New Black, Jurassic World), Kate Berlant (The Meltdown), Dr. Brown (Dr. Brown), Paul W. Downs (Broad City), John Early (Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp), Tim Robinson (SNL), Natasha Rothwell (Writer, SNL) and Henry Zebrowski (Heroes Reborn).

The series also features cameos from SNL's Cecily Strong and Bobby Moynihan, Tyson Beckford, and Broad City's Abbi Jacobson.
