The Hollywood Reporter

Panhandle will be made for Spectrum Originals, which will share it with The Roku Channel after an exclusive, ad-free nine-month window for the series. Nicholas Stoller, creator of Friends from College and director of Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Neighbors, created Panhandle, which according to The Hollywood Reporter "follows eccentric, agoraphobic armchair detective Bell Prescott (Kirby) and traffic cop Cammie Lorde (Okoye) as they deal with personal demons, alligators and the oddballs who populate their Florida town." Panhandle is the latest Sony Pictures Television-produced series for Spectrum after L.A.'s Finest and the Mad About You revival.
