When Adult Swim greenlit Dream Corp LLC last year, it was difficult to imagine what to expect. John Krasinski and Stephen Merchant, respectively known for their roles in the American and British versions of The Office, are involved and pitched the series as a live-action (with rotoscope assists) workplace comedy in a “neglected dream therapy facility,” immediately eliciting allusions to Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. But, being Adult Swim, home of such live-action shows as Tom Goes to the Mayor and Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, it’s even shit-balls crazier than it sounds.
Dream Corp LLC, starring Merchant, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Nick Rutherford, and Stephanie Allynne, premieres at 11:45 October 23rd on Adult Swim.
