Free Agents is an American sitcom television series that premiered on NBC September 14, 2011, in the 10:30 pm Eastern/9:30 pm Central time slot, before assuming its regular time slot on September 21, 2011, where it aired at 8:30 pm Eastern/7:30 pm Central on Wednesday nights.[1] It is based on the British comedy series of the same name that was created by Chris Niel, who also serves as co-creator and producer on this version with John Enbom, Karey Burke, Todd Holland, and Kenton Allen for Big Talk Productions, Dark Toy Entertainment and Universal Television.[2] This show was the last series to be produced by Universal Media Studios during the revival of Universal Television.
On October 6, 2011, NBC cancelled the series after only four episodes were broadcast, due to low ratings.[3] The remaining four episodes produced were later released via Hulu on January 16, 2012.
