Welcome to Flatch

2022–2023 · 2 seasons

A gentle, giggly mockumentary that ambles through small-town oddballs with affection, making you feel like you're people-watching in a friendly, slightly absurd community.

Created by: Jenny Bicks
Genres: Comedy
Starring: Holmes, Sam Straley, Seann William Scott

Tagline: Small town. Epic nothing.
Overview: When a documentary crew sets out to explore the lives of residents in a small American town – their dreams, their concerns – they stumble upon the midwestern town of Flatch, which is made up of many eccentric personalities. It’s a place you want to visit and maybe even stay. If there was a decent motel. Which there is not.
