Apple TV+ Debuts 'Your Friends & Neighbors' Featuring Jon Hamm in a Darkly Comic Crime Drama

The show premiered April 11, 2025, with Hamm leading as a hedge fund manager-turned-thief, already renewed for a second season despite mixed critical reception.

  • Jon Hamm stars as Andrew 'Coop' Cooper, a hedge fund manager whose life spirals after a divorce and job loss, leading him to steal from his wealthy suburban neighbors.
  • Creator Jonathan Tropper developed the series specifically for Hamm, citing his unique ability to balance charm and moral complexity.
  • The show critiques materialism and suburban facades, exploring themes of identity crisis, societal pressure, and the allure of crime as survival.
  • Critical reviews highlight Hamm's compelling performance but note issues with derivative writing, pacing, and comparisons to shows like 'Mad Men' and 'Breaking Bad.'
  • Apple TV+ has shown early confidence in the series, renewing it for a second season before its premiere, with new episodes released weekly on Fridays.
