Will Arnett has found his next act.

The Arrested Development star is back at Netflix, where he'll star in his own creation, Flaked. Set in the insular world of Venice, Calif., it's the serio-comic story of a self-appointed "guru," Chip, who falls for the object of his best friend's fascination. Soon the tangled web of half-truths and semi-bullshit that underpins his all-important image and sobriety begins to unravel. The streaming service has ordered eight episodes of the original comedy, which will bow exclusively across all Netflix territories in 2016.

GOB is on board.

 

[The Boohbah Zone]

Netflix really likes Will Arnett.

I'll give it a shot, sure.

 

[Jigorath]

He's had a lot of bad luck with sitcoms ever since AD ended. I hope this one works out for him.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Good. If he's going to work anywhere, I'd like it to be Netflix, since I imagine that would make AD Season 5 scheduling easier.

 

[Lijik]

AD Season 5 to be 90% GOB

 

[War Peaceman]

That role does not sound particularly different for Arnett...

 

[Messi]

He is wonderful in Bojack so I am back in.

 

[Hasney]

Netflix really likes Will Arnett.

I'm OK with this.

 

[Mesoian]

Is this Will Arnet's 7th failed sitcom?

 

[GK86]

I'm ok with this.

 

[Crud]

Is this Will Arnet's 7th failed sitcom?

Hes funny to me.

Came to say this. The one with Christina Applgate took forever to get cancelled tho.

It should have that Darma chick from Darma and Greg that is in every soon to be canceled show.

[Aiii]

I am already looking forward to it. Hope it doesn't mean BoJack is done though, want more of that!

 

[WanderingWind]

Bojack was surprisingly funny, once you get past the useless premise of the guy being a horse. Hope that sticks around for a bit more.

But since Netflix has a love affair with former Arrested Development actors, couldn't they pick up Better Off Ted for a final, third season?

 

[666]

If he's in control, then i'm interested

Bojack got renewed, so that's something I guess.

Love Arnett

Let's Go To Prison is an underrated comedy. Michael Shannon is also great in that (as well as Chi Mcbride, and Dax does a decent job narrating and supporting Arnett.)
