This will be the third show starring Arnett produced for the platform, the others being the cult comedies Arrested Development and BoJack Horseman.

Arnett co-created Flaked, a series about “a self-appointed guru who falls for the object of his best friend’s fascination,” with writer Mark Chappell — the two previously worked together on the dark comedy The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret.
“We’re very excited to partner with Netflix — the home of original, original content — and the network I knew would be the ideal home for this passion project,” Arnett said to Variety. Arnett’s last network television show, The Millers, was canceled by CBS last fall. Netflix recently renewed BoJack Horseman for a second season, and Netflix’s chief content officer Ted Sarandos is reportedly “positive” Arrested Development will return.
