FX’s Adults will return for a third season. The network announced the critically acclaimed comedy has been renewed for season three following season two’s 60% increase in viewership over the first season.
The series stars Malik Elassal as Samir, Lucy Freyer as Billie, Jack Innanen as Paul Baker, Amita Rao as Issa, and Owen Thiele as Anton.
“Adults is an ensemble comedy series about a group of twenty-somethings in New York leaning on each other to navigate love, work, friendship, and family,” reads FX’s synopsis. Samir (Elassal), Billie (Freyer), Paul Baker (Innanen), Issa (Rao), and Anton (Thiele) are five friends crashing together in Samir’s childhood home. Created by Ben Kronengold & Rebecca Shaw, the show puts a generational lens on the wins, losses, and humiliations of being in your twenties.”
Adults premiered in May 2025, followed by season two in July 2026. FX hasn’t announced a potential season three premiere date. Seasons one and two each consisted of eight episodes. Season three’s order is for 16 episodes.
“We started working with FX over six years ago, back when Paul Baker was but a twinkle in all of our eyes,” stated Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw. “In the years since, John and the rest of the team have taught us everything we know about how to lead, produce, and tell stories that make people feel like part of a community. They’ve become family, and we’re so glad to make it official—and to start yelling at them like we do our parents.”
Executive producers include Ben Kronengold, Rebecca Shaw, Nick Kroll, Sarah Naftalis, Jonathan Krisel, Alicia Van Couvering, and Rob Rosell.
