Loudermilk is an American comedy-drama television series created by Peter Farrelly and Bobby Mort . The series stars Ron Livingston , Will Sasso , Laura Mennell , Anja Savcic , Mat Fraser , Toby Levins, and Mark Brandon. [1] [2] The show premiered on October 17, 2017, on the AT&T Audience Network . In December 2018, it was announced that Audience had renewed the series for a third season. In April 2020, the series was left without a home after the network ceased operations. [3]

Amazon subsequently acquired the rights to stream the series, and the previously unaired third season was released on Amazon Prime Video in some countries, such as Canada, in December 2020. [ citation needed ] The series made its U.S. debut in March 2021, while the third season was added the following month. [4] [5]

Additional seasons were planned, but not produced as of 2024, since the show could not find a network willing to offset the production costs. [5] In January 2024, Sony Distribution licensed all 3 seasons to be available on Netflix as well as Amazon Prime. [6] As of March 16, 2024, three seasons are available on Netflix in the U.S.

Premise [ edit ]

Sam Loudermilk, a former music critic and a recovering alcoholic, is a substance use support group leader living in Seattle , who regularly doles out clever but acid-tongued critiques to his clients, his friends, and any random person he interacts with. Loudermilk, who does not have his life together in the way one might expect of a counselor, is somewhat nicer to the few people close to him, including his best friend and (usually) sober sponsor, Ben Burns, and his sponsee and unplanned roommate, Claire Wilkes.

Production [ edit ]

Loudermilk originally premiered on AT&T's Audience Network. [5] Its first season debuted in 2017. On April 12, 2018, Audience renewed the series for a second season, [7] which it premiered on October 16, 2018. [8] On December 5, 2018, it was announced that Audience had renewed the series for a third season, [12] but the network ceased operations in May 2020, prior to the third season's scheduled airing. [3]

Amazon Prime Video, which was already carrying the series in some countries outside the U.S., premiered the third season in those countries on December 31, 2020. [ citation needed ] Amazon acquired the U.S. streaming rights for the show and made the first two seasons available there on March 12, 2021. [4] On April 27, 2021, the third season received its U.S. premiere on Prime. [5]

Music [ edit ]

The first season uses tracks from Andy Shauf 's album The Party as incidental and atmospheric score, with an eclectic soundtrack as a nod to Sam Loudermilk's past as a music critic. [13]

Reception [ edit ]

Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the first season an approval rating of 92% based on reviews from 12 critics, with an average rating of 7.12 out of 10. The site's critical consensus states:

Loudermilk's timely premise and sharp writing lay a solid foundation for a strong central performance from Ron Livingston, perfectly cast in this endearing dark comedy about a rock critic turned recovering alcoholic. Currently, there is a petition from fans urging Netflix to produce more seasons at Change.org [14]

Distribution [ edit ]

The series is distributed by Sony Pictures TV; and in Canada, Germany, Italy, the U.K., and the U.S., it airs on Amazon Prime Video. [5] [9] [15] [16] The show has also become a popular choice on Netflix since being added to their library. [17]

Future [ edit ]

Though the cast was released from any contractual obligations to produce further episodes after the Audience Network shutdown, co-creator Peter Farrelly has stated that "everybody wants to come back and do Season 4", and that a production network is being sought. While Amazon was distributing the existing seasons (and Netflix has since joined them), to date they have not taken on a production role for further seasons. In total, Farrelly has envisioned seven seasons' worth of plotlines and character arcs. [3] [5]
