Fans of Curb Your Enthusiasm can now get their fix of dry humour, mixed with a bit of British flavour, as ChaiFlicks, a global streaming platform showcasing films and series centered on Jewish stories and culture from around the world, adds the British sitcom Hapless to its mix.

After a limited run on Peacock in the US, the 6-episode series follows neurotic journalist Paul Green and his efforts to write exciting articles for the UK’s ‘fourth largest Jewish newspaper’, The Jewish Enquirer. Paul often finds himself in awkward situations, mostly of his own making, thanks to his tendency to relate to others without a filter. Episodes will drop on the platform every Wednesday, with the first two episodes available NOW on ChaiFlicks.

The series is written by the award-winning comedy film and TV writer and director, Gary Sinyor, who, much like Larry David, has created characters in the series that resemble different versions of himself. He states, “I couldn’t have done it any other way. I think probably in everything that I’ve ever made, [the characters] are all versions of me.”
