The Comedians Premiered on FX on April 09, 2015
In THE COMEDIANS, Billy Crystal plays a comedy legend who is reluctantly paired with Josh Gad, an edgier up-and-coming star, in an unfiltered, behind-the-scenes look at a fictional late night sketch comedy show where egos and generations collide. Stephnie Weir stars as KRISTEN LAYBOURNE, the anxiety-ridden producer behind The Billy & Josh Show who frequently finds herself caught in the middle of Billy and Josh's arguments; Matt Oberg stars as MITCH REED, the show’s head writer, and Megan Ferguson stars as ESME MCCAULEY, a no-nonsense production assistant. Together they spend most of their time managing the egos of their two stars and the generational divide that keeps them from ever fully seeing eye-to-eye.
