Bartlett, the musically inspired web series, is premiering January 30 on Vimeo. The six-part comedy features Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, The Mindy Project actor Utkarsh Ambudkar, comedian Don Reed, and newcomer Eirinie Carson.
The show is based on the life of ad executive-turned-director Martin Edwards. Executive producers Chrissy Mazzeo and Anthony Veneziale also star in the program.
“When it comes to rich topics to explore as storytellers, advertising has got to be at the top of the list. From Mad Men to Bewitched to every ad we relish on Super Bowl Sunday, this is a world worthy of creative exploration,” states co-creator Mazzeo.
She adds, “We think viewers will connect with these relatable and truly entertaining characters – they are human in every way and focus on what we have in common vs our differences – I think everyone could use a dose of that narrative these days.”
Check out the trailer for Bartlett below.
