Based on the autobiographical novel by writer and critic Chris Kraus, the comedy debuted in August as part of Amazon Prime’s “Pilot Season,” when the online TV giant invited users to vote on prospective shows they wanted to see produced as series.

Rumors that the streaming video service ordered the show were confirmed yesterday, when Amazon also revealed that it will promote the other two pilot candidates, Jean-Claude Van Johnson and The Tick, to full series. All three shows are slated to premiere on Amazon Prime next year in the US, UK, Germany, Austria, and Japan.

“These pilots were vast in scope, disruptive in tone, challenging in story and sometimes even funny,” Joe Lewis, Head of Half-Hour Series for Amazon Studios told Variety. “It’s rewarding to see customers embrace them in such a huge way. We can’t wait to premiere these series next year on Prime Video.”
