Amazon Prime adds US sitcom Casual

Casual-900The first season of US comedy Casual is coming to Amazon Prime UK this Sunday, closely followed by season 2 which will make its debut in June.

Produced by Jason Reitman (Juno, Up in the Air), the show follows what happens when bachelor and dating-app creator Alex (Tommy Dewey, The Mindy Project) and his newly divorced psychologist sister Valerie (Michaela Watkins, New Girl) live under one roof again.

Together, they coach each other through the crazy world of dating (online and off) while raising Valerie’s teenage daughter, Laura (Tara Lynne Barr, Acquarius).

“We’re committed to bringing the best possible selection of TV shows and movies to Prime members in the UK and Casual is a great addition to our growing line-up,” said Jay Marine, VP Amazon Prime Video EU.

“Along with our critically acclaimed first run exclusive shows like the Golden Globe winning Mr Robot and time-travel hit Outlander, the seriously funny Casual complements our offering of Amazon Original comedies like Mozart in the Jungle and BAFTA-nominated Transparent.”

Amazon customers who are not already members can start a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime by visiting www.amazon.co.uk/prime.
