Speculation that Uncoupled would not be continuing on Netflix began late last year when sources indicated there was an attempt by the series' producer, MTV Entertainment Studios, to find a new home. The plan to move the series to a Paramount Global network, possibly Showtime, fell through.
Meanwhile, Netflix continues to do business with Star as its comedy series Emily in Paris continues to garner huge ratings, with the current third season making the Netflix Top 10 in 93 countries. The series has already secured a fourth season as part of a two-season order.
Comedies on Netflix include "That '90s Show," On My Block spinoff Freeridge, "Unstable" starring Rob Lowe, "Survival of the Thickest," and "The Vince Staples Show." The streaming service also recently acquired Girls5Eva, whose first two seasons aired on Peacock.
In Uncoupled, Harris plays the role of a gay man in his mid-forties who discovers single life in New York City after being dumped by his partner after seventeen years. The cast of the series also includes Tisha Campbell, Brooks Ashmanskas, Emerson Brooks and Marcia Gay Harden.
Star and Richman (Modern Family) co-produced with Harris and Tony Hernandez and Lilly Burns, formerly of Jax Media.
