Workaholics

Workaholics is an American sitcom that premiered on Comedy Central on April 6, 2011. The series is predominantly written by its stars Blake Anderson, Adam DeVine, Anders Holm, and co-creator Kyle Newacheck who play, respectively, three recent college dropouts, roommates, and co-workers at a telemarketing company—and their drug dealer, in Rancho Cucamonga, California. The sixth season began in January 2016 and has been renewed for a seventh season.

Synopsis

The main characters became acquaintances at college where Blake and Adam were roommates and Anders was their resident advisor, and, in a phase-of-life transition, continue to do things associated with college after dropping out (drinking, partying, pranks, etc.) as they transition into adulthood. The "friendship family's" action is generally confined to the main characters' house and their workspace, a cubicle the three of them share at a telemarketing company called TelAmeriCorp.

Production

The show was co-created and is largely written by its three stars, Blake Anderson, Adam DeVine, and Anders Holm. Frequent co-star Kyle Newacheck also directs most episodes, as well as being a fourth co-creator and serving as executive producer.Kevin Etten is the series' showrunner. Prior to Workaholics, the group was part of the sketch comedy group Mail Order Comedy, which began in 2006 in Los Angeles, California. They have since created a production company under the same name.
