Amazon MGM Studios has greenlit an improvised multi-camera sitcom called "Dinks," starring June Diane Raphael and Paul Scheer, a real-life married couple. The show derives its title from the phrase "dual income no kids." Created by Okay Goodnight, the production company behind "Friends" and "Grace and Frankie," the series is also produced by Lionsgate Television.
"Dinks" revolves around Josh (Scheer) and Charlie (Raphael), a couple who, without marriage or children, embark on the ambitious project of renovating an already problematic house. The series will feature Jon Gabrus as a recurring cast member. Co-creators Kauffman, Canter, Raphael and Scheer, along with Robbie Rowe Tollin and Jesse Schiller, will share executive producer credits.
"I’ve always said I wouldn’t do another multi-cam unless someone was able to reinvent it. Okay Goodnight and I got tired of waiting, and decided we should do it ourselves," Kauffman expressed in a statement. "It's what I hoped it would be: unique, hilarious and warm. Shooting this show is like being on a roller coaster in the dark. You have no idea where it's going to go, but you know it's going to be fun."
