FXX Orders Comedy Series 'Man Seeking Woman'

FXX has added a new half-hour comedy to its slate with a 10 episode order of Man Seeking Woman. 

The series, which stars Jay Baruchel as Josh Greenberg, is based on Simon Rich’s short story collection The Last Girlfriend on Earth. Rich also wrote the pilot and will serve as executive producer and showrunner. 

Rich’s former SNL boss Lorne Michaels also serves as executive producer alongside pilot director Jonathan Krisel and Andrew Singer. 

In addition to Baruchel, the cast is rounded out with up-and-coming comedy talent such as Eric André, Britt Lower and Maya Erskine. 

Man Seeking Woman is expected to premiere in 2015.
