On January 21st, a clown will rise!
If you watch Portlandia on IFC, then make sure you don’t sleep on the new Zach Galifianakis FX series, Baskets. Co-created by Louis C.K. and Johnathan Krisel, the new comedy centers on Chip Baskets, who’s out to pursue a career of becoming a French clown.
However, before he makes that dream become reality (in his mind), Baskets has to move back to his hometown of Bakersfield and take upon a profession that his family members believe is not a real job. As Chip looks to win the approval of his mother, while divulging into an inner sibling rivalry within, get a taste of what you can expect when we meet the many faces of Galifianakis.
Get ready to go to clown school on FX Networks this January 21st.
