Lena Waithe and Kid Fury band together for an upcoming comedic-debut with HBO.

Podcaster turned comedian Kid Fury infamously known for his hit podcast The Read is working together with Chicago-based director Lena Waithe who will executive produce a new HBO comedy series.

The half-hour series is described as:

“a surreal dark comedy that follows Greg, a 20-something sarcastic gay black man navigating adulthood and responsibility in New York City while struggling to wrap his head around his undiagnosed clinical depression.”
