The dark comedy hails from creator Valerie Armstrong.

The eight-episode series is told from the point of view of Murphy’s Allison, Kevin’s wife, who escapes her confines and discovers her rage. 

Per the official synopsis, “Alternating between single-camera realism and multi-camera comedy, the formats will inform one another as we imagine what happens when the sitcom wife escapes and forces the world to let her take the lead.”

“Annie is an undeniable talent with the ability both to play comedy and to break your heart. She is the perfect fit for the role of Allison, the perfect actor to bring to life creator Valerie Armstrong’s genius vision,” says Sarah Barnett, president of AMC Networks Entertainment Group and AMC Studios. “Cracking open the conventions of the ‘classic’ American sitcom to expose what’s swirling beneath, in this highly inventive and entertaining way, is the kind of story we are hugely excited to tell at AMC.”

Rashida Jones and Will McCormack will executive produce. Craig DiGregorio will serve as showrunner and an executive producer.
