FX Comedy 'Adults' Season 2 Premieres on Hulu and FXX

Published 28 August 2026

The second season of the FX comedy series "Adults" premiered on Thursday, August 27, 2026, with all eight episodes available for streaming on Hulu and the first two episodes airing on the FXX cable network. The season continues the story of five twenty-something friends navigating life and relationships in New York City.

The series follows roommates Samir, Billie, Issa, Anton, and Paul Baker, who live together in Samir's childhood home. The new season picks up after the dramatic conclusion of the first season, in which Paul Baker, facing visa expiration, entered into a marriage of convenience with Anton to avoid deportation to Canada. The season one finale ended with an unexpected kiss between the two, altering the group's dynamic.

According to the show's official synopsis, the second season explores the friends' continued attempts to manage complex personal and professional challenges. The characters confront issues such as workplace satisfaction, family relationships, and evolving friendships while often devising elaborate strategies to avoid direct confrontation. The narrative maintains its focus on the core ensemble's chaotic but supportive bond.
