A comedy series created by and starring Rachel Sennott has a spot on HBO’s calendar — and, almost a year after it was picked up, an official title.
The show is called I Love LA and will follow “an ambitious friend group navigating life and love” in Los Angeles. Sennott (Bottoms, Shiva Baby) stars alongside Jordan Firstman, Josh Hutcherson, Odessa A’zion and True Whitaker. Leighton Meester, Moses Ingram, Lauren Holt, Elijah Wood, Quenlin Blackwell, Josh Brener, Tim Baltz, Froy Gutierrez and Colin Woodell will make guest appearances in the eight-episode season, which premieres Nov. 2.
HBO picked up the series in September 2024. I Love LA will be part of a new wave of comedies at the premium outlet that also includes Tim Robinson’s The Chair Company, shows from Bill Lawrence (with Steve Carell starring) and Sharon Horgan, a sketch series from Larry David and Barack and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground, and a final season of The Comeback.
Sennott and Dan Levy also co-created Netflix’s forthcoming series Big Mistakes, which is currently filming in New Jersey.
I Love LA is executive produced by Sennott, Emma Barrie, Aida Rodgers, Max Silvestri, and Lorene Scafaria, who directed the show’s pilot. Sennott, Bill Benz and Kevin Bray also directed episodes.
