American Auto
Time to turn this company around.
Created by Justin Spitzer
On NBC
A workplace sitcom built on ensemble comedy and the gentle stakes of corporate adaptation, where the humor comes from character dynamics rather than high-concept premises.
In the headquarters of a major American automotive company in Detroit, a floundering group of executives at Payne Motors must adapt to the changing times or be sent to the junkyard.
