Netflix hires Grace Reiter's American High for Minimum Wage

Netflix has acquired the American High YouTube sketch comedy team and its star, Grace Reiter, for their upcoming short-form sitcom, Minimum Wage. The show is set in a small town pizza shop where a group of underpaid, frazzled teens navigate the challenges of running a business. The series, inspired by the web series of the same name, offers a mockumentary-style look at their daily struggles.

Joining Reiter in the cast are Ryan Micho, Aidan Micho, Julia Dicesare, Luke Burke, Hyde Healy, and Tommy Armstrong. The show's premise revolves around the arrival of chain owner Randall Park, who shakes up the rag-tag crew with his arrival and the looming deadline to make the Slice Club profitable. With a mix of pranks, mishaps, and workplace drama, Minimum Wage promises to be a comedic ride for viewers. The 14-episode first season will debut on October 26 on Netflix.
