Anthology series don’t always have to be mysterious and dark, as demonstrated by the trailer for Netflix’s forthcoming “Easy,” an anthology show about love, sex and dating in Chicago from mumblecore director Joe Swanberg. Lots of raunchy humor is immediately apparent in the first few seconds of the trailer, as well as one extremely awkward-seeming dinner date and a few bedroom or near-bedroom scenes that show characters getting very, very real.
But mostly, it’s television’s favorite thing: people talking about sex.
According to Netflix, the cast of the eight episode series, arriving on Sept. 22, includes Orlando Bloom, Malin Akerman, Jake Johnson, Marc Maron, Dave Franco, Hannibal Buress, Emily Ratajkowski, Michael Chernus, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Aya Cash, Jane Adams, Elizabeth Reaser, Evan Jonigkeit, Aislinn Derbez, Mauricio Ochmann and more.
