‘Adults’ Renewed for Season 3 at FX

FX has renewed the comedy "Adults" for a third season of 16 episodes, up from the eight episodes in each of its first two seasons, the second of which premiered in August on FXX and Hulu. Creators Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw have also signed a new overall deal with FX Productions.

How the coverage differs

All three outlets report the same core facts, the Season 3 renewal and the new overall deal for creators Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw, and differ mainly in added detail. Deadline gives the most context, noting that FX is Disney-owned, that Season 2 premiered in August on FXX and Hulu, and that the 16-episode order doubles the eight episodes of each prior season, which it calls "supersized." Variety states the 16-episode count and includes a quote from the creators about their history with FX. The Hollywood Reporter labels the show a "Gen Z comedy" in its headline and, in its excerpt, focuses on the creators' deal without mentioning episode count.
