After changing the way network television viewed queer comedy with their revolutionary sitcom 'Will & Grace', creators David Kohan and Max Mutchnick are set to alter the landscape of the streaming space with MID-CENTURY MODERN, a classic multi-cam comedy series about old friends, new roommates and chosen family.
Executive produced by Ryan Murphy, directed by James Burrows, and starring Nathan Lane, Matt Bomer, Nathan Lee Graham and Linda Lavin (in her final on-screen role), MID-CENTURY MODERN is a riotous comedy about three gay best friends who, after an unexpected death, decide to embrace their golden years together in sun-soaked Palm Springs, where the wealthiest one lives with his mother.
As the series sets its premiere this week on Disney+ here in Australia and Hulu in the United States, our Peter Gray spoke with Kohan and Mutchnick about the evolution of their comedy from 'Will & Grace' to now, the content freedom that comes with airing on a streaming service, and how Ryan Murphy got the show wheel’s running more than they could have ever imagined.
