Thursdays (8:30-9 p.m. ET) on NBC
“Perfect Couples” is a romantic comedy that follows three flawed pairs trying to get it right.
Dave (Kyle Bornheimer, “Worst Week”) and Julia (Christine Woods, “Flash Forward”) are the “everyday couple,” messed up in all the “normal” ways. Dave struggles to keep both his wife and his needy best friend, Vance (David Walton, NBC’s “100 Questions”) happy. Vance and the volatile Amy (Mary Elizabeth Ellis, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”) are the high-passion, high-drama couple who bring out the best and worst in each other.
The third duo features Rex (Hayes MacArthur, “She’s Out of My League”) and Leigh (Olivia Munn, “Attack of the Show,” “The Daily Show”). Rex is a reformed party guy who has channeled his jock energy into a competitive drive to be the ideal mate. Leigh, a self-anointed relationship guru, has formed the perfect union with Rex, and now considers it her duty to mold the other couples in their image.
“Perfect Couples” is produced by Universal Media Studios. Show creators Jon Pollack (“30 Rock”) and Scott Silveri (“Friends”) serve as executive producers with Andy Ackerman (“Seinfeld,” “The New Adventures of Old Christine”), who also directed the pilot.
