The first episode premiered on Amazon.com's Prime subscription streaming service on August 19, 2016. It was part of the first Comedy Pilot Season, an extension of the popular and ongoing "choose your own programming" experiment known as Pilot Season. The three half-hour comedies included I Love Dick (2016), The Tick (2016) and Pilot (2016). Subscribers vote on which of the three series will be picked up based on just the first episode/pilots.
Most of the action is set in and around the town of Marfa, TX, a minimalist art mecca in the high desert. The real-life Marfa (population 1,981) is a popular arts destination home to Building 98 and the Marfa lights. It is famous in popular culture for the "Prada Marfa" sculpture, a permanent installation erected in 2005 about 26 miles NW of the town by artists Elmgreen and Dragset.
Marfa, Texas was where the Elizabeth Taylor, James Dean, and Rock Hudson film "Giant" was filmed in the 1950's.
Canceled after just one season.
