Netflix has today given a series order to the original animated comedy series Living the Dream created by George Gendi (Apple & Onion). The first season will produce eight episodes.
The adult animated workplace sitcom will follow best friends Des and Ray, a couple of guys from London who feel they should have made it big by now. Instead, they're stuck working on social media at a company called Ecofood. Now they must navigate awkward workplace romance, HR blunders, directives from the L.A. office and Ray's dad's disapproval.
The voice cast will feature Gendi, Javone Prince, Ambika Mod, Julia Davis, Ellie White and Tom Stourton.
Gendi will executive produce with Sam Register, Sarah Fell and Daniel Lennard. Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe and Boulder Media will produce.
"If living the dream is being asked for a quote for a press release to announce my new show and then at Netflix's request, trying to make it more cheeky/funny and then doing that countless times because none of them are good enough, then I've made it," said Gendi.
