The series, which released its first trailer on Friday, focuses on four very different members of the titular society — Birdie (played by Brooklyn Nine-Nine‘s Melissa Fumero), Catherine (Lessons in Chemistry’s Aja Naomi King), Brett (For the People‘s Ben Rappaport) and Alice (The Carrie Diaries‘ AnnaSophia Robb). But the group isn’t your garden variety gardening club; rather, they get bogged down by “murder and mischief as they struggle to make their conventional lives bloom,” per the official synopsis.
Saamer Usmani (Three Body Problem) and Josh Ventura (Till) join Sims and Zehetner in recurring roles alongside the show’s ensemble cast, which also includes Alexander Hodge (Insecure), Nancy Travis (Last Man Standing), Matthew Davis (Legacies) and Felix Wolfe (Raven’s Home).
Per our sister site Deadline, Sims plays Tucker, Catherine’s dismissive husband, while Usmani plays Gary, a local realtor who becomes Catherine’s lover. Meanwhile, Ventura plays Connor, a partner in the law firm that employs his wife Melissa (Zehetner), who also happens to be Brett’s ex-wife.
The drama, which hails from Jenna Bans (Desperate Housewives, Scandal, Good Girls) and Bill Krebs (No Tomorrow, Good Girls), premieres Sunday, Feb. 23, at 10/9c.
