In Flaked, Will Arnett plays a guy who hasn’t exactly lived up to his early promise: Unshaven in Venice, California, Arnett’s Chip bicycles to work in a storefront where he makes three-legged stools. Created by Arnett and Mark Chappell, who co-wrote all the episodes, Flaked premieres on Netflix on Friday, and it has a way more laid-back vibe than Arnett’s other two Netflix showcases, the antic cartoon Bojack Horseman and the saved-from-cancellation Arrested Development (that show’s creator, Mitchell Hurwitz, is a co-producer of Flaked). Chip lives across from his buddy Dennis (David Sullivan) and the two of them are attracted to a new girl in town, London (Ruth Kearney)—this, despite the fact that Chip is involved with Kara (Lina Esco), a musician he met in AA.
