MILLENNIALS Premieres on AMC Feb. 25  Image

"Millennials," the six-episode original sitcom will premiere weekly beginning Thursday, February 25 on AMC Networks' newly relaunched streaming service, ALLBLK, announced today. The hilarious new comedy is centered on the lives of four 20-something roommates and their neighbors across the hall; as they navigate the chaos of being young and finding success, and themselves, in the city of angels.

Omar (Kyle Massey, "That's So Raven,") is a straight-laced business student with dreams of taking over the corporate world, urging his goofball friends Jaheem (Keraun "King Keraun" Harris), a personal trainer; Travis (Philip Bolden, Are We There Yet?) an insecure YouTuber; and college dropout Todd (Aaron Grady, "Everybody Hates Chris") to get their acts together. In each episode, the friends' schemes and antics make it abundantly clear that none of them have it all figured out-- except maybe, their hardworking neighbor Mercedes (Teresa "Topnotch" Celeste, "Tales," "Wild N' Out"), an aspiring actress from Atlanta who often serves as the only voice of reason for the guys. Tanjareen Thomas ("Famous in Love"), comedian Buddy Lewis (Big Stan, Black Dynamite), and Katherine Florence (social media influencer @katieflorence), also star. The series is created by Rugg Williams and Oren Williams, with Bentley Kyle Evans serving as co-director and executive producer.
