Freeform has today announced the premiere date for upcoming original comedy series Everything's Gonna Be Okay created by and starring Josh Thomas (Please Like Me).
The half-hour comedy will premiere on Thursday, January 16 at 8/7c.
Thomas stars as Nicholas, a neurotic twenty-something visiting his dad and teenage half-sisters, one of whom is on the autism spectrum.

Navigating autism, budding sexuality, consent, parenthood, adolescence, family and grief, the heartfelt comedy will follow this imperfect family as they discover the importance of finding happiness in the middle of really difficult moments, one awkward conversation at a time.
