Search Party is an American dark comedy television series created by Sarah-Violet Bliss, Charles Rogers, and Michael Showalter. TBS picked up the pilot to series in November 2015. All ten episodes are currently available online. On December 13, 2016 TBS renewed the show for a second season.
Living in New York City, Dory (Alia Shawkat) comes across a flier asking for the whereabouts of Chantal Witherbottom (Clare McNulty), whom she recognises, and decides to make it her life mission to find her. She drags her circle of friends into her investigation including her boyfriend, Drew (John Reynolds) and friends, Elliott (John Early) and Portia (Meredith Hagner), who have a hard time understanding her interest but gradually get deeper involved in the mystery. Through their encounters, they get involved with more shady and eccentric characters. Drew finds himself attracted to the sexy but short-tempered neighbor, April (Phoebe Tyers) in his building, Portia loses her role in the TV Show where she thought she was the star and Elliott is outed as a compulsive liar and narcissist by Julian (Brandon Michael Hall), Dory's ex-boyfriend who is a writer. Dory, meanwhile, meets Chantal's neurotic ex-boyfriend Gavin (Griffin Newman), a flighty real estate woman named Lorraine (Rosie Perez), a weird cult living behind a jewelry store and a private eye named Keith (Ron Livingston), who she has an affair with, all of whom she believes to have a role in Chantal's disappearance.
In June 2015, it was announced Alia Shawkat, John Early, John Reynolds, and Meredith Hagner had all been cast in the pilot, with Sarah-Violet Bliss and Charles Rogers directing and writing alongside Michael Showalter, Lilly Burns, Tony Hernadez, John Skidmore, Brittany Segal serving as executive producers and producers respectively. In November 2015, TBS ordered the series.
