‘Hapless’ U.S. premiere: How to watch, where to stream, what to know

The hit U.K. comedy series Hapless is now scheduled to make its premiere in the United States Wednesday, April 10.

Those in the U.S. who have been patiently waiting can stream the series exclusively with Peacock.

According to IMDb, Hapless is a “cringe” comedy that has been described as similar in its approach to U.S. hit series Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Hapless (originally titled The Jewish Enquirer), follows the life of 40-something Paul Green, an investigative journalist at the 4th biggest Jewish publication in the UK, who takes his job – as well as his neurosis and pet peeves – very seriously, according to the British Comedy Guide.

In Hapless, Paul seeks to address some of the major dilemmas of our times such as: can a key-cutter be trusted with your home address; can a shower gel legally claim to contain 7,927 mint leaves; is Philip Green actually BAME; and why has there never been a Jewish 007?

However, his journalistic ambitions are partly thwarted by interference from dominating sister, Naomi, who regularly calls him in for baby-sitting duties; their dismissive father, Ronnie; and neurotic best friend, Simon.
