Max Greenfield, Jack Champion, Stephanie Beatriz, Bebe Neuwirth, and Steve Buscemi are also billed.

What the time series shows
The stored weekly series is a flat zero from August 28 2021 through July 18 2026, then a five-week climb of 3, 3, 4, 42, and 100, with August 22 2026 as the peak. The title had no measurable search print until a month before launch. The Netflix week of August 15 already printed 42, so the second streaming week added another 58 points rather than fading. Derived labels from this series: growth exploding, speed exponential, seasonality low, volatility high. The recent 30-day absolute change is 97 points (3 to 100) against a prior 30-day change of 3 points (0 on June 20 to 3), which is why speed reads exponential. Week-over-week percent-change standard deviation over the last 52 non-zero-baseline prints is about 390, well above the 80 cutoff for high volatility. A 90-day percent change cannot be computed from a zero baseline. The curve is a single launch ramp, not a seasonal repeat, and the latest point is still the high.
