Party Down S1-3

All dressed up and going nowhere…

Party Down follows the struggling actors and dysfunctional dreamers serving hors d'oeuvres for a Hollywood catering company while they wait for their big break.

Co-created by Paul Rudd, Party Down’s stacked cast includes Emmy nominees Adam Scott, Ken Marino, Lizzy Caplan and Jennifer Garner, as well as Emmy winners Megan Mullally (Will & Grace) and Jane Lynch (Glee, Only Murders in the Building). Also look out for guest appearances from the likes of Kevin Hart, Jennifer Coolidge, Kristen Bell, JK Simmons, Nick Offerman and more.

“Returning after a long layoff, Party Down brings patient fans a third season that's every bit as sharp – and laugh-out-loud funny – as its predecessors,” says Rotten Tomatoes, where Season 3 has a 95% critics’ rating.
